This is the only way;

if (condition) {
    code
}

Not

if (condition)
{
    code
}

Also because of my dyslexia I prefer variable & function names like this; 'File_Acces' I find it easier to read than 'fileAcces'

I think it would be a much hotter take if you had the opposite opinion. I've only met a few of those.

I've only seen the second type in C#, to be fair it makes code neater but i'm glad I left it for Java.

How does it make code neater? All it does is add a ton of empty vertical space. It makes files arbitrarily longer at essentially no benefit.

It depends for me. If the condition is some goofy ahh multiline syntax hell i like to use the second option.
