Nice, Project Loom is often summarised as just incorporating the main feature of Virtual Threads however it will also add a whole bunch of other features or improvements for doing tasks concurrently and not having to worry about blocking IO or race conditions like you would have in the past.
Some useful code examples are here to play around with https://github.com/nipafx/loom-lab
Not sure about now but a few years back the company I worked for was heavily vested in Finagle [1] using Future pools. I'm sure virtual threads would only enhance this framework. Also, Spring and it's reactive webflux would probably benefit as well [2].

Quarkus is built on Vertx so once that gets upgraded two will support it. https://github.com/vert-x3/vertx-virtual-threads-incubator Vertx is testing it
