alt Hacker News> Spring won. Why would anyone want to learn the standard aside from it being a standard that few people use?
People don't really talk about Jakarta EE as "the standard". Haven't been doing that for quite some time.
You learn it so you don't hand Spring the ultimate monopoly. I thought we all didn't like monopolies? Why give Broadcom one?
Yes please, though this is largely driven by my personal dislike of Spring Boot. The bloat and magic sucks so much of the joy out of programming to me. That said, I never lived in Spring Boot exclusively. I've heard people say that it's an "all in" kind of thing and once you go all in and learn the thing really well, you start to like it.
