Each new block on the chain since #909137 has been completely full.
Why are tx fees so only 1-2sats/vb?
Even high priority is <10 with >20 block in mempool.

It's a sign from the spirits that now is a great time to consolidate your near-dust utxos and coinjoin your stack, to mess with the spooks.

Personally I'm just using wasabi with a high target "anonymity score" and switching coordinators from time to time, but I'd not recommend it to anyone per-se because most of the liquidity is sitting on a single coordinator (kruw's)
It's good you ask this though, because there may be value in a bit of exploration what liquidity is where right now on the other join protocols. I can't do it the coming week - not enough time available - but may actually be able to do something the week after, while hoping someone beats me to it.

Most mining pools are accepting below 1 sat/vb fees. A few months ago, those txns would not be relayed by nodes or included in miner blocks.
Most trading volume of BTC is using paper instruments like ETFs, stocks, or custodial accounts. A few years ago, these didn't exist or were less popular compared to making a peer-to-peer txn.
Lightning network is more mature. Its common now for a single channel to process tens of thousands of payments in its lifetime. LN didn't exist a decade ago, but now it is the preferred way to add payments using BTC.
