Can you use jQuery with Firefox OS, yes or no?. The answer is yes. The Firefox OS devs even provided the author with a version of jQuery that works as-is. Thus the title is misleading. Maybe it should say it is not compatible with jQuery Mobile, which would be less surprising, because it is a giant everything and the kitchen sink of a library that more closely resembles jQuery UI than jQuery. I've had trouble with jQuery Mobile and Android in the past.

You're reciting how things are supposed to work, not how they are working. The provided jQuery version did not work. I do not believe you carefully read the entire blog post.
I did read it, the provided jQuery did not work with jQuery Mobile, but it does work with Firefox OS.
To quote the post:

"So I grabbed their code and tried checked if it would also produce warnings, and it did, almost as many as mine."

So, no, not so much. I believe you're confusing this with a statement made after it that does relate to jQuery Mobile.
