   It is too bad, the entire ecosystem ends up being held back by Java 8 
support - we cannot use the latest Java nor Arrow features, and end users end 
up getting much worse performance sticking on outdated technology. And when 
there is an Arrow CVE we are not able to mitigate by upgrading anymore.
   
   Fory ends up stuck between wishing to stay on Java 8 but depending on 
projects that will not support it. 
   
   Fory 0.1 was only released in 2023, at which point Java 8 was already EOL 
for many, many years! I am a little surprised that users in 2023 would combine 
ancient, unsupported Java 8 with brand-new Fory serialization.
   
   But if we really have users that insist on not upgrading, I suppose there is 
nothing to do about it for now. It must happen eventually, though - Java 8 will 
not live forever.
