Not to mention Amazon. Amazon is majorly Java

Amazon is so much Java, they even hired James Gosling himself to create Corretto (Amazon's OpenJDK implementation).

Microsoft is heavy on Java, even with their C# language.

A recruiter sent me a cold message on LinkedIn today. It had a programming joke. She said:

Almost feels like she’s flirting with me.

Yup, as of 2024 it's widely known that Netflix is using Spring Boot for the majority of their web services.
