What little respect that I had for Nuance as a 25 year Dragon user on multiple platforms has really gone down the drain.

Probably the best option will be PC emulation on the Mac to run Dragon Naturally Speaking V15, but I shudder to think what that is going to cost as my MacBook Air has only 4 GB of memory, which is not sufficient to do PC emulation along with DNS15. As long as the application receiving the dictation is added to the list of applications able to control the computer in the systems accessibility panel, Dragon works like a charm and is now a rather stable program. I am also using the latest version of Mac OS, Mojave 10.14.5. A PC is not the answer for me I have been on that route for too many years. I am in fact using Dragon 6.0.8 to dictate this. Now with it's demise there is a huge void in the Mac world for voice recognition dictation. I learned to write necessary new words down on paper and then add them to the program one at a time after dictating and avoiding any on screen voice recognization of correction and editing commands and with this scheme the program was serviceable for me for complex report dictation. The program can only learn one new word at a time for the vocabulary file, having to save the entire file after each addition, really time consuming and frustrating but probably necessary because of it's frequent crashes. The program does work well for straight forward speech recognition to get thoughts down on the screen rapidly, saving edits for the keyboard. Yes, their program did not work as well on a Mac because the control and correction features were bug laden and caused multiple crashes.

It really is a loss for Nuance to completely pull out of Macintosh support.
