I've worked for multiple shops that basically just moved to Java 8 and then bolted an anchor to the nearest pylon. A few made one move to JDK 11 for the "LTS" experience. I can understand their reluctance to move on as the move from <8 to 8 brought a lot of pain. Those old apps had a lot of cruft. Your modern Spring Boot app shouldn't be as tough though. (ByteBuddy maybe an issue). Even the folks that have moved on, aren't really using any of the new functionality. I realize every shop is different, this is just my experience.
