If you’re complaining about higher EU fees. Buy ETFs domiciled in Ireland. With most of europe, that means zero dividend withholding tax, unlike 15% (or more depending where you live) for US based. Over a couple years, the dividend fees on the Us version add up and make Ireland more profitable for long term, even if the expense ratios and trading fees are a tad bit higher.
How does Ireland and Luxembourg compare for European ETFs. My broker gives discount on Luxembourg Amundi stoxx 600. Which makes it quite good to buy it monthly

Forgive my ignorance, but can an American buy an Irish ETF? If so, what are the rules around it?
Check out the US tax treaty with ireland to figure out if it makes more sense for you.
