alt Hacker NewsJava SHOULD never become a player in anything more until Oracle stops being such a threat. Oracle just wants to be a parasite on companies that actually build.

I gave up on Java when Oracle took over, because I thought that it was such a horrific move, but, to their credit, they haven't ruined it for everyone (yet)
They've kept it alive, allowed it to grow, and innovate, even let Green threads back in.
I'm not planning on going back to Java, but that's no longer because Oracle.
I like that Microsoft has a distribution of OpenJDK. Easy to trust if I'm on a windows system anyway. What's the risk?
