Doing what you said defeats the purpose of transaction fees, which is to pay a bit more and send money faster.
If fees are fixed for everyone, then you might as well eliminate them right? Miners would not accept such change, but had they not been introduced in the first place it would be the same thing wouldn't it?
And also how would fixed fees be determined? Would the developers and/or miners set them, or would they be based on the number of unconfirmed transactions in the mempool?
In either case, Bitcoin would become what it's trying to avoid, centralized. Why would anyone have control over what fees I pay, I don't want to pay any fees.

I don't think nobody cares about dash, there's no conspiracy. Bitcoin is going through the usual scaling drama and people are speculating with other cryptos (mostly shitcoins) because nobody uses them so they are faster and cheaper than bitcoin. Nothing to see there.
... which I am not even sure if that will really take place in August, considering so much shitty (that refers to the developers, the miners, and the rothschilds) drama keep relentlessly playing out between the developers and the miners, and Dash is going full force trying to topple Bitcoin (seems like the developers and miners are indirectly lending a helping hand on that with disagreements on the scaling issue), I want to ask just 1 simple question:
>> Why are the developers and/or miners not enforcing "first-come-first-serve" rule in confirming transactions?
Yeah, the transaction fee is high, but if they make it a rule for everyone to pay a fixed percentage of transaction fee (taking the opportunity for anyone to bid for higher priority out of the equation) and confirm transactions that get sent first, then there would be no competition of Mr. A (2nd in line) trying to get faster transaction ahead of Mr. B (first in line) by paying more, because both will pay the same relative to the dollar amount being transacted and the miners will not lose out.
Or maybe setting the fee based on the amount of bytes sent is a bad idea, which since this is the case, then Bitcoin mining will eventually be centralized and probably along with a new protocol version similar to PoS.
Note: If Segwit + LN is finally activated, Dash will crash. Are the rothschilds scumbags trying to shift the goal post to Dash with all the Bitcoin scaling drama?
