Except that since several releases Oracle Java is basically OpenJDK + Support.

And some of those issues show up when migrating to recent Oracle Java, too.

Depends what you mean by recent.

For me recent means JDK 14 or later.

That would be somewhat odd; isn't Oracle building off the openjdk as well?

And I have trouble crediting the idea that moving to openjdk is anywhere near the effort to move to a completely different language+platform, even if there are differences.

To be fair I haven't seriously touched java in about 4 years. I do remember Android studio explicitly warning users to avoid Open Jdk

My second point was a joke, still I wouldn't be the one to rock the boat. If anything is even slightly off after switching to open JDK you'd need to justify it

Once upon a time maybe, but today:

> A copy of the latest OpenJDK comes bundled with Android Studio 2.2 and higher, and this is the JDK version we recommend you use for your Android projects.

"We don't have to license it from Oracle" should justify a lot.

I'll admit when I'm wrong. Thanks for the info
