Not really just stop using/promoting bad design like jQuery plugins, eventually people catch on.



I'd like to know how they prevent plugins from colliding and polluting the $ namespace.


We shouldn't use a $ namespace haha, that's a big part of the problem, which has nothing to do with JavaScript. jQuery was and always will be poor design. It's a great project and has obviously helped a lot of people but it makes no sense.
