Thanks for the reply. You and the others have really lost me about the differences and compatibility of Java, JRE, OpenJDK, sdkman, conda??? Maybe I'm in the middle. I pay enough attention to not want to deal with Java, but I don't know well enough to find other non-Oracle ways. I might research all this someday and lose my distaste of Java.

Gave my honest thoughts on this and lost 3 karma points. Not too bad this time. I still have a few more to spend.

Yeah, it sucks that people will downvote people for legit opinions / experiences rather than actual bad faith comments.

I'm mainly interested because I write a lot of software that needs the JVM to run (I don't use Java itself much, but it comes to the same thing). So it is very useful for me to understand reasons people would reject my software.
