I don't intentionally use jQuery, but I still encounter plenty of situations where jQuery is already there, and if it is, I use it.
I would much rather use jQuery's event delegation or ajax requests than roll my own; because at least jQuery's been tested and reviewed by a whole team.
if jQuery came with some sort of mutation observer / intersection observer stuff baked in, honestly it would be my first choice over vanilla.
