We have same issue with Card View:

So much of the improvement in Kanban card display would come from using the "real estate" on the cards more effectively. The large card width provides a great deal of white space to work with.

For my day-to-day tasks, I use the Kanban view exclusively (so a lot). I have been keeping that data in clickup because the layout is more streamline there and a bit easier to work with - but I need to move it to SS with all my other data so things are in one platform.
The fields that I feel don't need a title to be displayed along with the associated data are: 1) area of company 2) priority 3) description 4) status fields (as they are usually quite self explanatory). Also, any dates would be helpful if the label and the date were on the same line. It simply doesn't need to occupy the real estate of two separate lines. This is applicable for other fields as well - label and date on the same line just saves valuable space.
For me, removing field labels is particularly beneficial because I have a very long list of tasks, and need particular data displayed on each card. But having very large, fat cards prevents me from seeing many cards at one time. The fewer cards I see, the more scrolling I need to do, and for the way my brain works, it just make things more difficult when trying to get the big picture clear in my brain. This is one reason why clickup has been good - I can get a lot of information displayed on each card, while the card stays rather small. This enables me to have quite a large number of cards displayed at any given time in Kanban view.

Hello Kerry Proctor! I have a few more questions for you:
- What specific fields do you find unnecessary in the Kanban view besides the priority flag and Area of Company?
- How often do you use the Kanban view, and how would this change improve your workflow?
- Are there any specific scenarios or use cases where removing field labels would be particularly beneficial?
