I figured out how to switch java versions without uninstalling any: 'sudo update-alternatives --config java'

Thanks to Joseph Sible, Novarch, and Likqez for pushing me in the right direction.

This issue occurs when you don't use JDK 8, please try using it again, uninstall JDK 11 and check your JDK version with java -version.

Forge, as i know right now, sadly only supports Java 8 Development Kits. Be sure that you're running JDK8 by typing java --version. Try uninstalling other versions or specify which version shall be used. I suggest reading this
