Make use of the "special offers" instead of crying about the bad days.

Some people simply live in the belief that transactions should always be cheap, no matter what the price of BTC is, and about what is going on behind the whole crypto mining process. Therefore, it is difficult to explain to the average user why sometimes you have to pay more, or even how to use the data in mempool so that we do not pay more than we should.

But please explain to the average user like me, why should that be taken as a feature?
Are banks charging you 5% extra on Mondays? Is your internet provider offering 18-22 speed packages at 10x times the price?
The only company thing that matches this is Uber with its surcharge and that's because of traffic which everyone in this world defines as a fucking Problem! not a feature to keep people safe limiting the speed to 3 km an hour! Funny how people say use other coins, oh so the solution is to use something that doesn't have this feature built-in!Time for a lot of people to turn honest and face the truth, the small block that will keep decentralization true was a flop!

No matter how much I hate shitcoins I have to admit, the path was not taking either side big blocks or segwit but a combination of two, if you see unfathomable small users paying an extra 50$ every for years on a bigger SSD to host a node I can't see how you think you can achieve LN coverage when the network adoption itself is limited by the same block limit.

But hooray, the fees are going down, we have solved the problem! By killing usage! Insert triumphal march!
