JQuery vs. Prototype
This w3techs.com current article claims 20.5 times more websites use JQuery than use Prototype. JQuery is used by 57.4% of all websites and prototype is used by 2.8%. from here. in Dec 2013
Now in March 2016 it says 69.8% of websites use jQuery for a 96% marketshare vs a 2.9% for Prototype. Used 33.1 times more
Others include Bootstrap, Modernizr, MooTools
But another article says "Much of this growth can likely be attributed to the fact that jQuery comes bundled with a number of popular open source blogging and content management software systems, including DotNetNuke, Drupal, and WordPress.

The chaining of queries (each jQuery returns itself so you can chain them together)
Working with arrays/collections of results as a single unit eg: $('.tab').hide() could hide all elements of class tab
I find the API extremely 'discoverable' and commonsensical, in that, having a little knowledge I can achieve the results I am after eg: $(':input').parents(':not(:first)').show() would show all the parents of every input element except the first parent.
and probably most of all is the extensibility and plugin architecture of jQuery is incredible and has created an awesome community of plugins, where I can find practically anything I should ever need
A Dec 2009 comment -- I was working with Prototype before, and I switched to JQuery because:
