Unnecessary placeholder for empty properties on Cards: “Empty”
If I want a property of an object to be displayed on the card in the gallery view, the label “Empty” appears on every card where that property is not set. This looks pretty bad and distracting and was apparently introduced recently.
It would be helpful if this behavior could either be configured (“Do not display if empty”) or if “Empty” simply weren’t displayed for that property when there is no value set for that property. By the way, there might also be properties that actually have “Empty” as a selectable option, right?

Does “Empty” appear for all property types or only specific ones, such as select or date properties? Please also confirm whether this happens only in gallery view and add a screenshot showing the card configuration and result.

I agree 100%. And on empty properties inside the objects too. I'll also add the icons for tags, collections, labels etc. to the category of visual clutter. They're on both wall and gallery view. And it's a very recent introduction.
I think the design of the features (labels, tags, collections) are different enough for users not to need the extra hand-holding.
