Update R Version for Online Services

As it was explained to me by Microsoft help ticket, PowerBI Online only supports R version 3.4.4. I have great visuals in R that work on my desktop (because the desktop version uses your machine's locally downloaded version of R) but they give me errors when I publish to my workspace. If the version of R supported by PowerBI's online services gets updated, it will solve a LOT of issues.

R 3.4.4 was released in March 2018. That was SIX YEARS AGO. I've used R for decades and I have had the most frustrating experience using it with PowerBI. R 3.4.4 and the dplyr version that Microsoft claims they support won't even run together on my machine but some of it does on the Power BI service so they're clearly doing something other than what their documentation admits. So frustrating.
