I have a problem recently installed Ubuntu 20.10 on an old HDD so that I can take a look at what's so new so far so good problem with the thing when I downloaded Minecraft, I have to configure Java 8 and Java with it I can play in 1.8 Problem when I wanted to install Java 8 via the terminal, the terminal could not find the command I then checked via (Javac) which Java version I can install with only Java 11 was displayed and I know that Java 8 Support will be discontinued soon, but Mojang will not have the task of upgrading all Minecraft versions to Java 11 or how
On Ubuntu you install Java like this:
To do this, start the terminal and then enter the following command:
sudo apt install openjdk-11-jre
This will install Java 11. It will not install Oracle Java, but openjdk. This is the open source version of Java which is 100% compatible with Oracle Java.
Java 8 is also still available. This is also openjdk:
sudo apt install openjdk-8-jre
But for me it works at 16.04 and 20.04 but at 20.10 net
I would stick with version 20.04 because this is a stable long-term support version. Version 20.10 is not a stable version.
Yes, I would anyway, but I just like to test the whole new version
