As I write there is another huge number of transactions in limbo.

Time to solve this problem, guys (lead developers). Shape-up and fix this.

I grow somewhat disenchanted w/ BTC, even w/ paying higher fee (when I can) or w/ acceleration.

Bitcoin scaling is imminent, we need to implement the new feature, no matter SegWit, BU or 8 MB, only scaling can solve the huge number of transactions issue. Slow speed and high transaction fees kill bitcoin's larger adoption.

But we still need BU and SegWit because they are the one who are implementing the blockchain, and scaling can not solve the huge number of transaction issue, the problem here is that, the blockchain size is not big enough anymore to support the transactions that we are processing each day because of the rapidly growing of the bitcoin users population all around the world.

So, right now, we don't need to give negative thoughts or any offenses to blockchain, even though the fee each transaction just got higher than its price before, still, it is not enough for the blockchain to get this kind of feedbacks to us, they are doing the best that they can do, and we must also wait until this problem is over. It will take time, but you are sure that you are all still going to receive your bitcoins.
