Well for starters the demand of bitcoin is at all-time-high as well. Lots of movements in blockchain that's why the mempool is always full and there's that spammers who really don't want to harm the network as well. Not only you but everyone is really complaining about the current situation that sometimes we are very frustrated because we can't do anything about our transactions but to wait for it to be confirmation. I'm using Electrum wallet. One advantage of it is that you can dynamically adjust the fees yourself. Of course if you have it to be confirmed in the next 5 blocks or so, you have to pay a higher fee. But sometimes I got lucky and my transaction can be confirmed in the next block without paying that much. Again, all we can do its to wait and have patience if our transactions is not confirmed in under 3 hours.
