I am not a metamask user but the transactions fees erc20 tokens, whether on MEW wallet, metamask, Trustwallet etc is still very high in my opinion. As a matter of facts, though these gss fees tend to differ from one wallet to the others, the transactions fees is still very high. I am hoping the Ethereum 2.0 will be launch soon to help these transaction on the Ethereum, however, this high gas fees is currently scaring people from using the Ethereum network, and now many users are switching to the Binance smart chain(beb20)
