Sometimes the audit is unavoidable. Recently went through one, and my first thought was “wait, people still use oracle jdk?”. Thankfully not my job to deal with, but I guess some companies never migrated off which blows my mind, but, to each their own I guess. Oracle is coming around looking for a paydays.
The jdk itself is fine, but the licensing terms are ridiculous. To their credit they waited to implement the terrible terms until there were multiple drop-in replacements.
I’ve mostly used Adoption Temurin / OpenJDK at work and they’ve worked fine.
Other than that maybe JDK from RedHat if you do a lot of enterprise work that relies on their other products.
I use temurin, but you’re really okay with anything but oracle’s jdk. You want to do what you can to avoid an Oracle audit.

I still cant believe that oracle did it that bad, that people switched off the JDK just entirely

Seconded. Really, anything but the oracle JDK.
