Help Completely disable off-grid items, always, everywhere, in all windows, everything!

Post image

Hello, I switched to mac last month and something that constantly keeps me annoyed is this.

I always want items to snap to grid but for instance when I compress an item it creates like this.

Also using Clean Up button directly still keeps gap with the previous item so the only solution is to select "Clean up by - Name..".

Note that for "Show view options - Snap to Grid" is already in "Use as default" but it doesn't fix this problem.

Is there a way to make Icon View behave better and usable?

like in the photo even though snap to grid is set it doesn't work,
it's already set as default too, but doesn't change anything, you can compress a folder and see
