The dialog for informing app users that they need to install or update the Java on their Mac cites Java.com as the location to download a Java installer.

However, the Java.com site is still only providing a Java 8 download. This is confusing the heck of out of some of my Mac/Java app users when they see a dialog indicating they need a Java > 8 with a recommendation to get it from a website that only provides Java 8.

I have been individually suggesting to people to go to https://adoptopenjdk.net/, or else https://adoptopenjdk.net/releases.html if they want more specific versioning. (I've also had to explain the diff between a JRE and a JDK to some.)

Not sure what to suggest here in terms of what/where the required-Java dialog should say.
