Should I use jQuery?

A very common question and a very hot topic at the moment is if you should really use jQuery. I believe it is very confusing - mainly for newcomers - to understand if jQuery is still relevant nowadays and that’s why I did create this video.

Bootstrap 5 stop using jQuery. Slack rewrite jQuery with React and gain +30% perfomance boost. And seems new Twitter do not use jQuery.

I liked the presentation - you gave good pros and cons. But I got the feeling that you're trying to encourage to learn jQuery. In my opinion, it's a waste of time - if a newcomer can spare time to learn something from 'javascript technologies' it'd be good to learn modern framework since it will pay off and can leverage one's career and later to learn vanilla js. And there's so much to learn if you start learning frontend technologies. If one needs to do a demo he can do it in one browser and can use vanilla js. I've seen 2 UX/UI trying to use jQuery and they only used the querySelector jQuery('...') because they added ids to all of the HTML tags :D I think that most of the jQuery widgets exist rewritten in other frameworks.

Just noticed this was posted in 01/07/2019 and you changed the title. I'm not complaining, just want to know if you still think that.
cheers
