Oracle Java is dead. Long live OpenJDK. The community owns Java. A lot of the Java 11 work was done by the likes of RedHat, Azul, Google, and a whole bunch of others: azul.com/90-new-features-and-apis-...

Home users on Windows and big corporations (who probably also use Oracle DB) will keep using Oracle Java. The rest will probably switch to AdoptOpenJDK, Azul's Zulu, and OS distro based OpenJDK builds.
