For what its worth, I use free pascal practically every day, but rarely
open Lazarus.

I write most of my code in emacs, running inside a tmux session:

But if I were going to make a GUI app, it would be crazy of me to ignore
Lazarus. :)

I also use it when I want to browse and navigate through other people's
source code. You can ctrl-click on identifiers as id they were hyperlinks.

Also if part of what bothers you is all the floating panels, you can enable
the anchor docking extension and put everything into one window. That made
a tremendous difference for me.
