It also says "free of installer bundles" while (at least in past, don't know about now) their default windows installer was including ads (source)

P.S.: If you want to disable the in-app ads, here's how to: https://gist.github.com/yunooooo/87564a0293a1c7a53fb3e233a604c638

    You can also get it to use your KDE theme if that is more your thing

    Edit: gtk theme, not kde

    I was mistaken and said KDE rather than GTK theme but you just need to add this add an environment variable before the operator on the desktop shortcut file and it should work

    _JAVA_OPTIONS="-Dawt.useSystemAAFontSettings=on -Dswing.aatext=true -Dswing.defaultlaf=com.sun.java.swing.plaf.gtk.GTKLookAndFeel -Dswing.crossplatformlaf=com.sun.java.swing.plaf.gtk.GTKLookAndFeel ${_JAVA_OPTIONS}"
