This is the scenario.

The rewards of the miners went down because of halving.
To compensate their expenses, the fees went up so they will stay profitable.

If you are living in a 3rd world country like me, the fees really are high especially when you are transferring only a small amount of money. On the other side, if you are transferring huge chunks of Bitcoin then the fee will not hurt you that much. There are some sites or wallets that let you adjust the fee but still there are some where you can't adjust the fee.

Another way to lessen your fees is to use altcoins which has a low transaction fees. Ethereum, Litecoin and Dogecoin are the most popular ones. You can convert it first to either of the 3 then after transferring exchange it again into Bitcoin then you're good to go.
