i used the optimal fees to send a payment(https://blockchain.info/tx/f9c9cbbaee3d5006872dede612da082e0c2944fa199c503451c81f21049ac636) and still pending.Im very disappointed with how the network works.

Can somebody help me with the transaction?

it's far from optimal fee, it's not even barely minimum. your tx : Fee per byte 5.021 sat/B
based on bitcoinfees.earn.com current average is around 490 satoshis/byte
with your current tx fee rate, you can only wait or do either RBF or CPFP
accelerating it thru confirmtx (freely) needs tx size <500 bytes or minimum 10 sat/byte thru viabtc
btw you've just created a dust balance in 1NhQXxB2... 0.0000288 BTC, should've just add it to tx fee as well

i used the optimal fees

No.  You did not.

You paid a fee of only 0.00000005 BTC per byte.

A reasonable fee for fast confirmation according to this website: https://bitcoinfees.earn.com/

is: 0.00000490 BTC per byte.

If your wallet told you that your fee was "optimal", then your wallet lied to you.  Perhaps you should consider using a better wallet in the future.

Im very disappointed with how the network works.

Perhaps you should be very disappointed in your choice of bitcoin wallet.  The network is working exactly as intended.

Can somebody help me with the transaction?

Are you willing to put in some effort to replace the transaction with a higher fee transaction?

Do you have access to the address 164ik4XJcfzEeuRj7hTFoZDFAujTgaiHHg? And are you willing to put in some effort to create a CPFP transaction?

Are you willing to pay a miner a separate extra fee to get the existing transaction confirmed?

5.021 sat/B, that is way too low!
Either your transaction will be confirmed or the transaction won't be confirmed, and funds will later return to your wallet.

If you sent the funds as "replaceable" with Electrum you can use the feature "Enable Replace-by-Fee" and resend the transaction with higher fee.

In some wallets it is possible to modify your fees, you should check.
There are also transactions accelerators.

Your fee is too small, miners will process other transactions which has the fee higher than yours. So i think you should find some helps in services thread , there are topics about boosting unconfirmed transaction or you can do it for yourself in viabtc.com

It's a hard time for bitcoin nowadays but in 1st january scalability will be improve. A lot of exchange will use segwit and maybe we will have 2mB increase. You just have to wait.
