Nope.
Why should I be freaking out just because of the fees? I know that it's truly expensive and far from what we've used to see but this isn't going to make me freak out. A sudden fall is more likely to freak out most of us but then, with this situation, it's just making us get used to it and adopt and decide whether we want to transact or not.

Yes, always choose the cheapest fee. If it's possible to transact with 1 sat/byte before, we might see that happen again when there's no more clogging in the network. But for the meanwhile, we have to add some sats on it and if you've got an urgent transaction needed to happen then just do what's the priority amount is telling you.
