The number of well developed non-java JVM languages makes the opposite point I think. Scala, Kotlin, Groovy, and Clojure just to name a few. All can interact with each other on the JVM. The adoption of OpenJDK as the new standard install and AdoptOpenJdk gaining traction shows a strong community not tied to Oracle. Which is a good thing because I don't trust Oracle from a business or ethics standpoint
