I used Mac because it gave me a great UX with access to all my favorite command line tools and a posix API I could build against. With Windows 10 finally shipping a real, supported posix target (Ubuntu for Windows - what an unfortunate name) vs the years of Interix (R) which was discontinued and replaced by "Linux subsystem for Windows" which was discontinued without a replacement until Nadella's "Ubuntu/Bash for Windows", I now no longer have need for OS X.
Plus, Apple doesn't care about macOS. HFS has bitrotted away, the OS itself has taken backseat to mobile, and Apple doesn't know if it cares enough about its enterprise and power users to even release "point releases" of their products - how much engineering tech does it take to replace a Haswell CPU with a Broadwell with no fanfare or ado? Just do it and make it available?

HFS is already being replaced with APFS which is excellent feature-wise, and is available in Sierra for testing purposes. I expect at this time next year we'll be seeing them use it by default on new macOS and iOS devices.
