Java 21 makes me like Java again
Java 21 doesn't retrofit green threads though. Quasar [0] is a library that implemented fibers for Java and the main developer pron has joined the OpenJDK development team. All that was necessary for first party support is to make the JDK libraries yield when blocking.
Adopting async isn't impossible at all, there is very little demand for it.

DoorDash: Migrating From Python to Kotlin for Our Backend Services
I'd say because of Erlang. Loom's architect was building a bytecode-modifying (with a javaagent) lib named Quasar before he joined Oracle. The project page mentions a news titled "Introductory blog post: Erlang (and Go) in Clojure (and Java), Lightweight Threads, Channels and Actors for the JVM." in May 2, 2013.

Alternatively, you can use sdkman. A great tool to install your Software Development Kit. The downside is that it only works on *nix systems. So for Widnows users, you will have to use WSL or Cygwin as the official page suggests.

To run the example, you must install the Auth0 CLI and create an Auth0 account. If you don't have an Auth0 account, sign up for free. I recommend using SDKMAN! to install Java 17+ and HTTPie for making HTTP requests.

First time Linux user
If you have any tips/advice then I'm all ears. I've already modified the dnf.conf with fastmirror and max_parallel_downloads I'm currently not using sdkman because this is my personal machine, so I don't mind always using the latest version OpenJDK. If I ever do need to switch between versions then I'll switch over to sdkman instead.

MOOC.fi question - Is there a way to automatically default to JDK 17 to where I don't have to set up an SDK every single time?
For handling your JDK: I highly recommend purging your system of all JDKs/JRMs - get rid of it all - and download SDK (if you're using Windows, you'll need to do this through WSL). This tool manages software development kits very well; switching between JDKs is super straightforward: sdk use .
