    Is anyone else in this thread surprised people weren’t using OpenJDK this whole time?

        The reason corporation are like that is because the responsibility is with the employee the decided to use the open source tool, when there is another company backing a product, there is someone to hold accountable. Also, there is a support number if shit hits the fan, and guarantee of support long term if the supplier is financial healthy.

          Also corruption where the person choosing to pay Oracle also is an owner of Oracle.

        I’m currently involved in a legal case in which I produced audio recordings. I was questioned intensely by the other sides lawyer about the modified date on windows.

        I kept asking him to clarify what he meant by modified until he said “I don’t know”.

        Like. Ffs.

        OpenJDK is the reference implementation now. Biggest differences I’ve seen are in the default list of trusted CAs.

          What about JavaFX? It’s included in the Oracle JVM but not in the others afaik.

            JavaFX was removed from the main Java spec in Java 11. Even the Oracle Java distribution. It’s a separate project now and is pretty easy to include as as jar if needed. In fact there are non-Oracle builds of the JVM that do add it (there are Zulu builds that put it back in). Because Java is now GPL. Anyone can create a build and include what they want.
