Chose OpenJDK
Obviously, OpenJDK has a more permissive license than Oracle's JDK. Still, Amazon Corretto comes with commercial support, & since it's backed by Amazon's infrastructure, downloading a new package to install on a new laptop/system is just a breeze.

OpenJDK is comparable to Oracle Java SE in most cases and you get away with significantly lower costs. Oracle Java SE have some advantages in performance on some native platforms but in most cases the OpenJDK performance is similar or at least good enough.

Actually, from a software engineer's point of view, JDK is nothing fancy to think of / talk about. It's just there & it works. Until he/she has to set up a project from scratch, together with the build tool, a JDK has to be chosen. Also, when doing deployment work, having a reliable, readily available JDK to install to target systems is a blessing. Still, Oracle could have done a better job supporting OpenJDK, especially for commercial usage.
