> Re Java - If you're looking to maximise compatability, then yeah you should aim to target an older JDK. Virtually all Java projects use at least JDK 8 so that can be a baseline,

Oracle says that JDK 11 is on “Extended Support” which comes after “Premier Support”.[1] Why not just support JDK 17 and higher?
