It does not sound offensive, it sounds stupid.

That's fine, I'll take that my point stands still though.
People bashing on jquery for that "points" never understood why jquery is even here to stay for at least 2 more years.
I remember having to write a small TODO program for an interview. I generally don't do frontend too much and the time limit was really tight.

So I made a simple TODO in like 30min. Naturally part of this is my familiarity with jQuery, the other is, for a small application jQuery is really great. I had a nice UI in no time.

I do understand it and I’m sure it will stay. I just think it’s not a good practise to use it anymore.
actually it is, ES6 native js is too long to type, jQuery is so neat and short, I will continue use jQuery whenever it's fit
