If I go to openjdk.org today, the only links I see to download a JDK point to the Oracle site, jdk.java.net. Is that the reference openjdk or the dangerous Oracle version? It's entirely unclear at first glance. Honestly, why should I as an end user spend the time and effort to figure this out and update every few months to begin with? Why is it not as simple and convenient as the CLR is, with standard major releases annually, minor releases quarterly, and LTS versions every 3 years.

Is it really not that clear? > Download and install the latest open-source JDK. Oracle’s free, GPL-licensed, production-ready OpenJDK JDK 22 binaries for Linux, macOS, and Windows are available at jdk.java.net/22; Oracle’s commercially-licensed JDK 22 binaries, based on the same code, are here. It's right on the landing page.
