Delphi was not abandoned because it was technically inferior. It was abandoned because Borland/Inprise started pushing Application Life Cycle products (don't get me started on that) and also pricing Delphi very high and the number of new companies/developers coming into the Delphi ecosystem dropped precipitously because of this. As Delphi lost steam, the development of Delphi too last steam and now we have the situation where Embarcadero marks HiDPI support as a feature in 2021. Embarcadero really, really needs to look at its pricing structure. Giving out a "community" version which does not even have proper database connectivity isn't going to change anything.
