8 and 11 are LTS releases, and are still supported. 17 is the new LTS, but it's only been out for 2m. See https://endoflife.date/java https://endoflife.date/jav

- yjftsjthsd-h 5y agoYeah, a couple years ago I had to decide what version of Java to use in an environment where it needed to run for as long as possible with minimal maintenance, and I found myself in the weird position of intentionally shipping 8 because it had longer support than the newer versions we could have used. It's a weird position, but rational.
