>>but really this is also a wake up call for any programmer like me who is overly dependent on a single technology such as dotnet or java

Java is open with competing implementations from Oracle, Redhat,AWS and of course OpenJDK and several other providers.




Aren't all these distributions of openjdk, therefore largely being the same codebase?


Yeah, there’s really two main implementations of Java - OpenJDK and GraalVM. Both are decently mature/stable.


There is IBM OpenJ9, which is compatible with the latest versions of HotSpot.

IKVM.NET is active but only supports Java 8.


Oh, never mind lol
