I'll bite:
We use MS Access as a thick client for a PostgreSQL database. I appreciate it for is reporting, forms, productive scripting language, and query designer.
What I don't like about it is that Microsoft hasn't really improved it in the last six years - but there isn't anything remotely like it: Xojo, FileMaker,and AirTable are close
but not quite there. For us AirTable is a non-starter because you rent it as a service.
If I had someone hold a gun to my head and jump to alternative - it would probably be Lazarus/Borland Delphi
