I feel like very few people must be using jQuery nowadays, but I suppose this is good news for those who still are.

I have some old sites that use minimal JavaScript that I never plan on moving to a modern framework. Probably should upgrade them though lol.

The vast majority of (smaller) websites that I see still use it, I'd say it's very much alive

Pretty much all WordPress sites still use it and that's a CMS that runs almost 40% of online sites.

Honestly was thinking about using jQuery + UI. For a really simple SPA just for fun.

Never really used apart of being forced for money.
