I am using modern list, and it is truly great, very well designed.
Anyway, I am using 6~7 columns, and "title" column's width is unnecessarily long, thus i have to scroll right to see entire columns.
I've tried resize title column's width and saved it, but when I go back and come again, width sizing is not saved.
Is there any way to save this resized width or setting defalut width of columns?

@jhallal These is no Column Width option available under list settings > column settings page.
There are few new settings available to narrow/widen column like:
This narrow downs the Title column a bit. However, it cannot narrow down it completely because there are some hidden options like ellipses ( ... ), share and list comments options which will be shown when you hover over the list item.
Workaround (using SharePoint JSON column formatting): You can use JSON column formatting like below for your Title column:
{
"$schema": "https://developer.microsoft.com/json-schemas/sp/v2/column-formatting.schema.json",
"elmType": "div",
"txtContent": "@currentField"
}
After applying JSON column formatting, you can manually drag Title column width to narrow it down. Then save changes using Save view as option as mentioned in my answer here: SharePoint Modern List - Increase column width with JSON Issue
Note: This will allow you to narrow down the Title column width (see below image). However, you will loose SharePoint default option given in above image (ellipses context menu, share, list comments, etc).
