Went to the Lazarus Documentation page and found the following blogs:

Can someone suggest more resources in terms of Blogs or Twitter accounts to follow?

Many, MANY thanks!!

But I don't like the tone. While it is true that the absence of colaboration between FPC and Delphi leads to incompatibilities in the newest features, I think he makes a too big deal out of it.

Moreover, most people that chose for FPC/Lazarus do so because they are needing some real features of FPC/Lazarus that Delphi doesn't provide or plans to provide. It is rarely a one dimensional "Lazarus is free" choice.

  • ARM/PowerPC/Sparc support etc.
