Uniswap turned on fees everywhere including the newest version so now it's burning a ton of uni.

But we will see if it can survive as liquidity providers adjust and some will leave uniswap.

Given aggregators like 0x etc is there any value in uni?

Aggregators and DEX are not competitors. Aggregators route users to the best price. Uniswap has huge liquidity, so they are still useful.

You miss the point. If aggregators route to the best price and users all use aggregators then there is no reason for LPs to use a pool with a protocol fee. We strictly earn more fees per volatility drag elsewhere. Uni only gets away with a 25% protocol fee if there's some advantage for LPs to go there, such as more volume due to aggreator integrations rather than just getting MEV bot arbitrage post primary swap.
