Yes! Especially in the 90s. The multi-platform story for most things was SO BAD for SO LONG. Now we have better toolchains and we can deploy to most systems easily, but that's a historical aberration. We spent a lot longer struggling in the dark.
That's not to say that Java provided a "good" cross-platform experience by our current standards - but the fact that it provided it at all was huge!
