Same. I ran my MBP until El Cap came out, then upgraded to Mavericks (by that point, Apple had stopped letting me decline the upgrade...). Hated Mavericks from the start, too many UI changes, iOS features I'd been avoiding the newer versions for, reversing half the multi-touch gestures, and some instability in the mix too from running on old (but officially supported) hardware. The MBP came with Leopard, which I found great on its own, and Snow Leopard was an OS I actually paid real money for. It wasn't exactly expensive (£23), and to this day I don't regret it, because it was a truly brilliant OS. Stable, intuitive, and above all, usable. Nice, non-invasive UI with no superficial differences to the previous release, reduced disk footprint, more efficient use of the 64-bit CPU, and it just worked, year after year. SL felt like a very polished OS that Apple were actually proud of. My company uses Sierra, which is passable, but High Sierra (which by its naming scheme should be an SL-like release) is the antithesis of SL - unfinished, buggy as hell and with stupid security holes. I have thus far refused to upgrade any of our Macs, and am pretty sure we're going to skip it for the next version. If anything, I wish Apple had changed the name to OS 11 with Mavericks, rather than continue with OSX for a while. It would help disassociate the current poor-quality OSes with their ancestry.
