Does Delphi even have a LGPL option ? Because with Qt's LGPL you can use it in a lot of proprietary systems without having to pay for a license

I heard Delphi has free version. I did not go into detail as I own commercial version and keep it up to date. But from what I understand you can use their community edition for free as long as you do not make more than $5000 per year.
the OSS licensing terms are the LGPL or GPL.
- https://github.com/qt/qtbase/blob/dev/LICENSE.GPL3
- https://github.com/qt/qtbase/blob/dev/LICENSE.LGPLv3
- https://github.com/qt/qtdeclarative/blob/dev/LICENSE.GPL3
- https://github.com/qt/qtdeclarative/blob/dev/LICENSE.LGPLv3
they can add whatever separate licensing scheme they want in addition to that but if a repo has LICENSE.LGPLv3 in it, you can use it under LGPL like every other OSS project (and those two repos cover by far most of Qt, you can pretty much build an entire OS userspace out of them).
