Yeah, oh so many years ago I realized that I use just a small subset of jQuery, and just rewrote those bits, to avoid having to inject whole of jQuery into all pages that I browse (I had some global https?://* userscripts, so I was basically injecting jQuery into every single page and frame). https://megous.com/dl/tmp/basic.js https://megous.com/dl/tmp/basic.js 1.3kB compressed. Much better. :) And I avoided having to rewrite my extensions with platform APIs. That was before FF killed all the joy in writing userscripts for me, because I was no longer able to install and update them just by copying them to mozilla folder and had to invoke a lot of clicking ceremony to just get my 20 scripts or so from git into firefox past the webextension limitations on storage/access to mozilla folder.
