Shanghai upgrade are Ethereum GAS prices still so high??

!Warning in coming Rant!

Why after the Shanghai upgrade are Ethereum GAS prices still so high??

I thought that the Shanghai upgrade would improve stability (allow for faster transactions on the blockchain), and people would be able to unstake their ETH2.0 from years ago.

Im also using Uniswap 3.0, the newest version of their DEX.

Is it really all down to people buying and selling that “PEPE” coin ?? or are people still un-locking and selling / moving their ETH therefore putting increased congestion on the Blockchain ??

If anything GAS fees have become worse after the Shanghai upgrade with so much congestion on the Blockchain.

Also what is and when is the next major upgrade for the Ethereum Blockchain??

​

Thanks
