Probably because the project is just taking rust and making it Java....
Because they hate/don't want to learn rust and think Java is a superior language

You know, that's not what I've read. It's worth mentioning that it doesn't just use Java.

It was their announcement reasoning. And notice none of it is rust

Oh sorry they'd rather not contribute to lemmy and not use rust

Java isn’t my preferred language. I did learn Rust to try to contribute but found the code base in less than ideal state and the process of contributing to risky. They don’t always accept all PRs. I also have low faith in the success of Lemmy due to it’s poor QA process and it’s major lack of features.
I believe Java is the best option for this type of application, I almost did it in PHP. My goal was to attract as many people as possible to want to contribute. It’s worked, I have a ton of people contributing in some way, Sublinks roadmap is clear and organized, and we have a super-motivated and driven team.

Man, even if I somewhat understand Java as a choice, because it's basically the lowest common denominator for lots of devs, it is also that. It's not very fun to code in Java.
I've only looked into Spring Boot shortly, but that also looked like the antithesis of fun to me. Tons of boilerplate, heavy-handed processes, a million best practices and documentation to read before you know how to correctly use it.I mean, if they want to do this, then more power to them. But fun is still important for projects that people do in their freetime...
