What UI framework does JetBrains use for it's IDE products?
I think IntelliJ was built on Swing and predates JavaFX… however, I’m curious if they’ve got plans to integrate their Skia integration work that backs desktop compose: https://github.com/JetBrains/skija

The Decline and Fall of Java on the Desktop Part 1 (1999-2005)
Maybe the story is not finished yet. New approaches like JetBrain's Compose (https://www.jetbrains.com/de-de/lp/compose-mpp/) with a React inspired programming model might bring some new interest to the platform. Then there is a Java binding library for Skia (https://github.com/JetBrains/skija), and JavaFX is also alive and high quality.
As everyone is used to fat Electron apps now, Java applications (especially compiled and packed with new JDK features) might be refreshing.

I'm losing sleep over Java September 30, 1996
I think it's the core, the 2D engine, just never got the love it needed to be a great place to start. Nobody seemed to prioritize making that happen.
Like, the antialiasing was noticably fuzzy. I never found an applet that looked like it belonged on the webpage. And when I built a few, it was a lot of work to even get font rendering to not be horrendous. And even then, you'd see what the browser rendered vs what the applet rendered and they were always off. I remember using images instead of font rendering sometimes.
So, if you made a swing app, it was easy to put together, but hard to make look "professional".
By the time of the Oracle acquisition, I'm pretty sure everyone just realized "the browser won" and that's why we just had JavaFX get broken off the platform and basically put out to pasture. But it's not like much went into the core platform itself to make building great UIs easy. The underlying 2D rendering just never worked efficiently.
I mean, even today, there's some serious performance issues with IntelliJ on 4k monitors with scaling. https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/JBR-526
When I look at where JetBrains is going, it sure seems like they are building on top of a better 2D engine, in this case, skia: https://github.com/JetBrains/skija.

Running IntelliJ IDEA with JDK 17 for Better Render Performance with Metal
Under the covers it uses Skija which is a java wrapper for Skia which is a C++ 2D graphics engine (https://github.com/JetBrains/skija)

Clojure GUI or front-end - what are the options?
You can take a look at Skija from Jetbrains. It's a wrapper around the Skia library used by Chrome, Xamarin, LibreOffice, among others.

ImgMacroBot — Telegram inline bot to generate image macros on the fly.
Technically, the bot is written in Kotlin using Ktor and Koin. It's a single endpoint web service, listening for Telegram Bot API webhooks. Text is drawn using Oswald font (I need Cyrillic, not supported in Anton) with Skija library, a Java wrapper for Skia, a 2D library powering your phone and browser. It is really cool and next time you need to make something with graphics, consider using Skia and its wrapper for your language. Next, generated images are upload to Imgur via its API (the documentation could be better). The whole thing is running on a free VM in Oracle Cloud. So, yeah, next time you need to host something lightweight — check out their offering. Oracle also provides a free DB instance, which I'm using to cache the links. Monitoring: Grafana Cloud (also free). Deployments: GitHub Actions + Ansible. So it didn't cost me a penny, except for ~50 hours of coding in two weeks on the evenings.

Chapterized Audiobooks
https://github.com/yermak/AudioBookConverter Apparantly this is a good program to use. You should be able to convert them to a single m4b file and it should keep all the chapters intact.

Need advice about MP3 vs M4B and chapters

New to Audiobookshelf - Organizing series with multiple subfolders
Audiobookconverter can combine multiple mp3s into a single mp4

My audiobooks collection. I saw a similar post from another user and I thought about sharing mine.
Audiobook Converter - Takes anything not an M4B and makes it an M4B (and can add some basic metadata to an M4B). For Plex, I've found it useful to have one file for playback vs. all the mp3 files (plus it's a lot cleaner)

Question on binding long audiobooks (Mac)
I also had this issue with Audiobookbinder and switched to AudiobookConverter for longer book bindings

Advice on Complex Audiobook
However, I only went through the trouble because I didn't want audio quality to be affected at all (nothing to be encoded again, only removed). If you are not too concerned about audio quality, there is definitely programs out there on Mac that can chapterize files. M4btool is pretty powerful and there is Audiobook converter. I've heard AudioBookBinder might work as well, though I think it is older at this point.

Any way to organise audiobooks?
some audiobooks come in multiple mp3 so i merge a books tracks all into one file to save the headache of adding meta data to sometimes 100s of files for one book. I use https://github.com/yermak/AudioBookConverter to merge mp3s into m4b which I've seen being a standard for audiobook file format but mp3 will also work if you like that extension.
