I mean, you can say 'nah' all you'd like, but there's a whole section in that link on their hostility to Java. Including choice anti-competitive gates quotes!

Can't say I'd blame any language dev who saw that, and said 'no thanks'.

That did not change the fact that Java worked perfectly alright on Windows, the same cannot be said for many FOSS languages that insist all OSes are UNIX clones.

Off topic, but I wonder if that's true? Their research division must be pretty well funded and they sure care about taste, though the limits (cost) are pretty big. Anyone know more about this?
