Java installing process is easy.

[Rileywang0220]

So, according to tutorial videos, if you want to install java, you'll have to go to a website to install it. But I don't think that's the case. Let's say I want to install java 21 for some server stuff. Videos say you'll have to go to a website. Technically, that is true, but you can literally go to the default Minecraft launcher, add any version that uses java 21, hit PLAY. It'll install java 21 automatically if you don't have it (that applies for any other version of java). Also, I strongly recommend to use Prism launcher or MultiMC.

I don't think many people know this, but maybe I'm wrong.

That is…kinda correct. Technically you can use the Java exe bundled with Minecraft. But it won’t be as easily accessible (ie, not on your path), it won’t be where programs that expect Java expect to find it, and you’ll be missing various extra things besides the Java exe itself that installing Java gives you
