Higher fees have been driven by spam and not by adoption. Also, #Bitcoin adoption will have little chance to increase if friction (spam and fees) does not subside.
#Bitcoin adoption > spam adoption

Transactions were essentially free for the first few years but miners didn't have to fork out tens of thousands for mining equipment & electricity & they need to get paid. Maybe you weren't around but I remember the huge fee spikes in 2017 due to the number of people transacting & high fees will be a reality with wider adoption so get used to it. Layer 2 solutions are being worked on. Stop complaining or go find a shitcoin that gives fast free tx's, they are out there.
