So I noticed Guava missing and some other's have cited Joda and I think the real reason is that in 2017 between JSR310 and Java 8 the need for Joda doesn't exist in modern Java dev and a lot of the Guava functionality has been added into Java 8. Not all of it, but the biggest and most useful parts.

Some, but not most, of Guava functionality has been added to the standard libraries in Java 8. We'll still be extensively using it even after switching over to Java 8 specific features for Optional, Function, Date, and all the other goodies.
