      In short: Money

      Long story: Legacy

      The really long story: They added a bunch of stuff in that version and it’s the last LTS before they removed a bunch of other stuff and a lot of companies are just too lazy to update their 10 year old crappy software.

      The end.

          That might be true but there’s OpenJDK so they still don’t have that as much of an excuse

        If you rebuild the JVM inside Minecraft is it then Java Minecraft Edition? 🤔
