A once great product.

Never was a great product, it was a gateway for Oracle cloud, nothing else. It was ok, not great. Latest version has stupid bugs and the program just disappears. Same as before.

What I mean is that the developers are all been let go by Oracle apparently.

Oracle cloud was a relatively minor chapter in VirtualBox’s history.

It was developed by a small German outfit who were acquired by Sun, before Sun was in turn consumed by Oracle.
