I was in the same boat. QB refused to import for a year or two, and then after than completely ceased working unless I upgraded. I stopped using it. I didn't like GNUCash. I found a small indie commercial piece of software which was more like the old Quicken than Quickbooks, but it was good enough for my purposes. But I've been worried if that indie is going to survive financially. Any tips on writing your own?

I wanted to like GNUCash, but I just didn't. I had the same concerns re: other apps. I used the situation as a reason to play with developing a standalone app using Go, with sqlite3 as the database (basically a localhost web app). It was actually a fun side project, with the satisfaction of being free from Intuit. With it being go and embedded sqlite3, there are basically no dependencies to worry about.
