When Ethereum was developed, most likely they did not consider the possibility of such a heavy load on the network as it is now, + to this the price of the token has grown very much, which is the reason for such a high price for gas.
But smart guys have long come up with EVM, thanks to which you can avoid paying a lot of money for gas.  An excellent example of an EVM is Aurora, and which gas costs the same as in the NEAR blockchain, which is <0.01$.  Many Ethereum projects integrate EVM so that users can avoid paying huge Ethereum gas when using their application.  For example, you can find Aurora in DoDo, DeBank, Coin 98.
