A shoutout to jQuery Manager which allows your site to include a newer and safer version of jQuery along with jQuery manager should you need that.

And may I suggest, that all of us who identify issues with old jQuery version dependencies, get in touch with theme and plugin developers, revealing the issue to them. During my personal WP 5.5 release candidate tests, I encountered unusually many issues, and every single developer I have been in touch with, expressed an interest in fixing any issues before release, so that poor experiences with core updates can be avoided.

Take care
