Once again, please explain to me why this is acceptable...

Yeah this is getting to the point these fuckers need to fix it or a competitor needs to come and stomp Bitcoin out the game.

A competitor ? Who ? A shitcoin born yesterday ? Look at the statistics of the best altcoin and they're not even as half as good as bitcoins.Stomping bitcoin out of the game is way far fetched.
On the issue,yes the unconfirmed transactions are a temporary problem which would be fixed in the next development phases hopefully.If you have a better solution,please fork the project already.already. Whinning never helped anybody.

It won't happen today and tomorrow, but if Segwit/LN/blocksize-increase/keep-status-quo parties keep on blocking each other, it certainly WILL happen.

Bank-to-bank fiat transfers within the UK are free and instant.  Just saying....

as far as users are concerned, this is not at all acceptable. and we are feeling the effect of it whether by having to wait long period of time or by having to pay much higher fees and still wait.

as far as miners are concerned it seems like they are enjoying their 1BTC-1.25BTC total fee per block.

as far as developers are concerned they only seem to be wanting to say their own solution is good and the other solution is shit, and there is no middle ground so far.

it is also free in other countries such as Iran, just adding
i can purchase things with my debit card online or from the shops pos for free or i can transfer money for free online through my account on the bank website with 2 options of immediate transfer or taking up to 2 hours transfer.

I admit it's irritating to wait a dozen of hours for a transaction to complete. Specially in the case you are purchasing a service for exemple that you need to get started asap and not tomorrow.I start to be tired to anticipate such things. Since we are used to complete instant transactions with fiat it is even more frustating. I was using Bitcoin for some services recently but sue to this, no choice to return to fiat. And of course others parties you deal with don't care if your transaction takes hours. No money no service. At least dealing with people you know well they understand the problem and can start to work before the transactions complete
