Protecting a Macbook?

    Hi,

    New Mac owner here, wondering how to protect it.

    On my old Windows machine I had a combo of AVG and Malware Bytes, with CCleaner used often enough. No case.

    This time around I don't want AVG, it became a virus in itself with all it's awful pop ups. Malware Bytes has been installed but what cheap/free AV do you know of that are not intrusive and competent?

    Also looking for a neoprene sleeve for it. There's an Amazon Basics one but packaging costs the same as it and tbh I don't need to buy 20 quid worth of stuff for free delivery right now. Any recommendations? I'm tempted by Incase's stuff but it's seriously pricey regardless of quality. It's a 2015 13" Retina.

    TLDR; AntiVirus and Sleeve for MBP 2015 13". Thanks.
