The miners are doing everything they can, but that's clearly not enough.
Check this one:

https://btc.com/000000000000000002e4403e2babdccfe89704277ea48e1ab3ed5957cdfb1f24

That block contains 2,469 transactions (is this the new record?), and it's nearly touching the 1MB block size limit at 998,085 Bytes

You should not look at only one block to make any definitive conclusion (as to whether the miners are actually doing everything they can). I can just as well say that some miners are doing the best what they can while the rest of them (which are in majority, by the way) are doing essentially nothing. In short, it is only around 144 new blocks found daily, so could anyone post exact data as to the actual sizes of the blocks mined for the last two days (or since when the jam has started)?

That would most likely close this question
