Hi :) UbuntuStudio is a specialist distro that differs from 'vanilla' Ubuntu, prinarily to make it easier to create art, music and other multimedia. I think it has Blender built-in, as an example.
Java is generally considered a security risk these days and almost all of LibreOffice has rewritten almost all Java into C(++?) or Python or something. Sadly some add-ons/Extensions do still require it though.
