Everybody is screaming about how much they hate modern view (nobody at Intuit listens). So let me ask this: can anyone tell us what the advantages are? Please share!

Holy crap Quickbooks, why? Just why did yall have to update the app? The new style is way more complicated and it doesn't have every feature the old feature has. Example, when you convert estimates to invoices you can't write type in a description. So I'll have to go and open a whole new invoice instead of just hitting the convert button. Second example, I can't even go and add a discount. I have to just put my price down with the discount already deducted. I would be nice to show discounts on the invoice for customers to see. There's more little features missing on the new crap design. Seriously, change it back. Sad because I've had Quickbooks for 6+ years and I'm about to drop them. Holy crap, fix this and fix it fast!

Why is QB refusing to give customers what they want which is classic view. QB Online reporting was sold as so much better than Desktop, yet it actually is horrible. Did QB do anything to imporve reporting? No. 

Can I assume QB Online will do nothing with this modern vs classic view? I shouldn't have to spend 20 minutes trying to reconfigure a saved report. 

I guess this is what happens when you have no competition - you do whatever you want because you know you have little competition.

Wow, I'm surprised Intuit is saying that. Almost amazed, really. QB Online's reporting has always been weak, never even close to QB Desktop in capability. This is either a result of Intuit's marketing team's willful ignorance or they're just flat out lying.
