At last two companies, both had this Java Third Party Application that was pretty mission critical. Both of those companies put out support statements that they would only support Oracle JRE and no, they wouldn't be paying for licensing. So my companies ended up shelling out for JRE costs.
One of third party later changed their mind and said they would support Adoptium JRE but you had to be on latest version of software. Generally, upgrades required their consulting people to come in so cha-ching. Last I heard, we were on their calendar to come do the upgrade since upgrade cost was about a year of Oracle licensing fees.
