Windows 10: Please improve Taskbar in Windows 11

I don't know if this is a right place to ask for features, but I don't like the Windows 11 taskbar. Here's why:The height of taskbar is very high, it is hiding my icon's name. There should be a feature where we can shorten the height of taskbar a little. See the screenshot below:- I like to arrange my icons in horizontal fashion in lower left corner. You can see in the screenshot that the taskbar is hiding the name "Google Chrome", and it's just showing "Google". In Windows 10, it was good.Please improve it. By the way, Windows 11 is beautiful!
