Delphi is also a commercial product still - I use it every day :-)

Can I ask what kind of projects you work on as a Delphi developer today? I loved using it back in the day but I understand the market for it is quite slim now.

I spent two decades as a Delphi contractor. Not doing it anymore, but I still see a lot of control software for industrial machinery and lab equipment (at least those made in EU), POS and kiosk software as well as custom ERP and ERP style software.

I am currently working on NIR spectrometer and I am actually thinking about using Lazarus for driving touch screen instead of web based dashboard.

For example this company uses Delphi on their software products,

In Germany, there are still conferences with Delphi contents (EKON 24 and BASTA), and some magazines have occasional Delphi content.
