Virtual Threads are actually in their second preview which means it might not be years before we see them standard in the JDK.

  It currently looks like Virtual Threads will be final in JDK 21, to be released in September this year. https://openjdk.org/jeps/8303683 https://openjdk.org/jeps/8303683

    Just to be clear that's a submitted draft JEP [1] so not quite there yet.... [1] https://openjdk.org/jeps/1 https://openjdk.org/jeps/1

      But it is not the first iteration, and the loom branch has working versions for quite some times now. It’s definitely not in a design-only phase.

        Loom was already merged into their master equivalent, iirc. It was shipping behind a preview flag for a while.
