For me, the current fees for DeFi participation are expensive, and I hate risks. Perhaps it is a good choice to wait until the underlying technology is perfect and DeFi matures before participating.
High fees shouldn't necessarily mean that a project is bad; heck, even Bitcoin has really high fees sometimes(mostly in peak times of bull markets). Also taking note that cryptocurrency projects including Bitcoin will never be 100% finished, because there will always be things to improve.
