Lack of control over spacing and fixed widths in database properties
Users are frustrated by the lack of native controls for padding, margins, and column gaps. Recent changes to pinned properties have introduced fixed minimum widths that create wasted space and break visual layouts.

there’s sadly no proper “padding/margin” control in Notion.
The pinned properties have a fixed min width, and no longer affect the content as much as before.
Nope there's no native way to control that column gap (it is really frustrating tho).
now everything seems to have a min width and I think it looks pretty dreadful.
