| Sadly, I feel like it’s too mature. If you’re used to contemporary development environments, Lazarus feels like a clunky throwback. I say that with lots of love and respect for the Lazarus team and community. Delphi’s even worse. Working in VSCode is... fine. For such a beautiful language, the ecosystem has really fallen behind the times. |

| I like Lazarus but its also stuck in time it feels like. Theres so many improvements and modernizations they could have implemented into Lazarus by now. |

Theme support so apps can switch between light and dark themes at runtime. Honestly theres about I miss when I write lazarus apps. |

| I wish FreePascal would allow declaring variables anywhere and loop local variables. I just can't program like C89 anymore and without these two basic quality-of-life features, Pascal simply feels stuck in history. |
