bugs.java.com/bugdatabase/ is the best I can suggest, or maybe against a distro package if you're using one. The former ends up in the OpenJDK bug database, but only after Oracle triaging

Is 17.0.8 working any better? The only one that springs to mind is JDK-8307683 (bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-…), though that was a JVM crash and the fix causing them was reverted in 17.0.8.

I think that we should all refer to this hellsite as "the platform formerly known as Twitter."

With help from the OpenJDK community.
The whole thing was rewritten from scratch for OpenJDK 8. The original one had to be passed everything via make variables.
It's one of the reasons we maintained our IcedTea autoconf wrapper around it for so long.
Yes, and the reaction of most websites to the law was to expose as much of the gory details as possible, so people would be inclined to just click 'Accept All' and keep the status quo.
A few sites do a better job, but not very many. Usually the ones you'd kind of trust anyway.

First time I've heard that. I had both replaced with British Gas early on. Both gave out readings to start with, then one seem to give up. After two engineer visits, we rolled back to older meters & manual readings.

I suspect there's a bit of both. Plus gaming has changed a lot over the years. It's a much more social activity than it used to be.

You could say that about a lot of things. Depends if you want to actually enjoy your life.

Plenty of games on Android & Steam for Linux these days.
Linux: Everything
Windows & MacOS are for if you want to see an old OS desperately trying to become a POSIX OS, but still failing badly.
And you have to buy specialist hardware for MacOS. Change a graphics card and it gets confused, poor thing. 😆
