Unless you don't need to run any online services, you can continue to use QBD 2019 for good. The potential problem is regarding IE11. We'll have to wait until next month to see the impact.

What do you mean IE11? You can't mean Internet Explorer...that's been gone for years.

How do you run your QBD 2019 until now?

I'm using Quickbooks Desktop Pro 2019 - "Desktop"

For your reference

When I switched from QB Enterprise to QB Desktop for Mac in 2013, I had to pay a third party company to convert my QBE files to a format QB Desktop could use. Now they are obsoleting QB Desktop, and your data files will be encrypted and useless in the online version without the online subscription.

I'd think long and hard before switching over to QB online. I'm not doing it, and if forced, I'll switch to a different desktop accounting program.

I'm still using 2017 for my primary accounting file. Works just fine. Nothing connected works, but everything local still does.

Unless you have a subscription SKU where you pay each year, it'll keep working indefinitely.
