Ability to change the width of the task title column

Hey, everyone!
This is quite an old request (2020) and since then the 'Name' column in List view has been made resizable (See GIF).
We are seeing some recent votes & comments here, is the request that the 'Name' column can be made even smaller? We see a few comments on this but want to make sure we capture all asks.
Thanks!

Michael Van Doorn Yes, the name column needs to be able to shrink to something like 6 characters in width. In our case we use Batch tasks to represent a work order in a production facility. The task name is very short ("12345A") so it would make more sense to allow the name column to be quite narrow so we can see the more of the task-critical data in custom field columns that we currently need to scroll horizontally to see.

Michael Van Doorn, yes. The Task Name column needs to be adjustable below it's current minimum. Why would there even been a minimum to any columns, perhaps there is a good technical reason? As a user, I'd prefer it to behave more like excel and give me control of how I want to see my lists. Please and thank you

Yes.
Make this column like every other column. Should be able to be adjusted to any size as the others are.
Also, allow us to move the entire task name column to the left or right like any other column. (This is helpful since some views we want to have a custom field be the first or main column but we are not able to do so.)

Got it, thanks everyone!

why the hell is this a restriction, so damn ugly and bad ux and seem slike such an easy fix. they fixed the horrible ux on kanban view now they need to fix this ugly list view with all this unnecessary bloat and restriction

The width of the task title column seems to be even bigger as of late. Why is this such a hard implementation?
Paul Walsh
Why? That's what I want to know. How it was decided to restrict that first column to such a wide width and waste space on everyone's screens?. Shout out to the devs who voted for a shallower width. And shame on those who decided to force blank space into millions of rows across the platform.
Yes I'm ranting. I have to look at that blank space every day and check every morning to see if I can change the column widths.
I use Monday with another client (which I don't like nearly as much I'll add) and their culcolumnsumns collapse so tiny it's made me realise how much time I waste scrolling back and forth.
Please implement this. This must be one of the lowest-hanging fruit when it comes to implementation.

This would be a really helpful feature - right now we're wasting a ton of screen space on this column.
