Java 21 makes me like Java again

The problem with Java is not Java. It is Oracle and no amount of new features is going to fix that.

I am wondering if Oracle is really playing significant role in Java evolution, they have some open process with many other companies contributing.

They are responsible for like 95+% of all OpenJDK commits.

Can this fkin FUD finally die? Java is pretty much the safest bet on a longevity, stability, risk aversion spectrum. Also, Oracle just has a particularly bad PR, but it is not at all worse than any other similarly sized company.

Oracle has definjtely done bad things; mismanagement of java is not one of them. They got a pile of crap and turned it into something competent.
