Had this very conversation today - I still like jQuery as previously it was extremely useful for projects (circa 2011).

I haven't really used it in the last 4 years as most of my projects have had frameworks in place.

I definitely think it still has it's place - it is more concise and reads a lot nicer in many cases than vanilla JS for DOM manipulation and AJAX requests.
