JDK 17 is supported until 30 Sep 2029 and JDK 11 is supported until 30 Sep 2031. Important bug fixes appear to be routinely backported to both JDK 17 and JDK 11. This gives JDK 11 a slight advantage in terms of long-term support.

Also, MinimServer supports some very old platforms such as the QNAP TS-109/209/409 and some old Synology and NETGEAR devices with GLIBC 2.4. It also needs to run on a number of ARMv5 devices. This combination is challenging for building recent versions of the JDK but I have been able to find a way through for JDK 11 and JDK 14. I haven't yet tried building JDK 17 for these old platforms but I expect this will be even more difficult.
