QB isn't won't continue desktop version support past 2019 for Mac. My internet is unstable/intermittent. So how is online better? Are you abandoning folks like me?

Going totally online is not an option as internet where I am is not the most reliable, not always available.  Don't live in a big city.  Yet I run a successful business.  So online version is better for me how?  Inconvenient if I can't access it, can't get work done.

@susiedpme, QB Mac is currently "in development".  Check the FAQS in this article:

Also, IMHO QBO is GREATLY lacking compared to the desktop versions, but I don't use a Mac so I can't give you specifics.
