trying to hit the back link on ipad mini is to close to the top of the screen - - for instance, when a link in an email brings you to Safari and you’re finished reading that page and you wanna go back to that email you can hit that “email” link in the top left corner to go back. But that little Email is so small and too close to the top that it is very hard to get it to react. Thanks.

Are you using a fitted case with your iPad?
Some poorly designed cases will interfere with your ability to touch the edges of the iPad screen - which, if touch-controls are positioned close to the edges, may impact your ability to reach them with a fingertip. If using a case, you might consider (a) using a compatible Apple Pencil to interact with the screen - as the Pencil tip is smaller and easier to accurately position on a small screen, or (b) remove the case altogether.
The Apple Support Community is a user-to-user technical forum. Contributors here are all end-user, just like you. Other than the site Moderators, Apple neither monitor nor participate within the Community. As such, you report is unlikely to be seen and recorded by Apple or Apple Support.
Apple invites submission of bug reports via its Product Feedback portal. For iPad and iPadOS:
If you find a repeatable issue with your iPad mini, you would be well advised to report it - as unless you and/or others do so, Apple will not necessarily be aware of the issue. When submitting your report, ensure that you include your iPad model and installed version of iPadOS within the body or your report. Don't rely upon the pick-list, as this is rarely up to date with current models or OS releases.
You might also consider reporting the problem directly to Apple Support. You can contact the Support Team using the Support link at top-right or bottom-left of this page.
Alternatively, you can initiate and manage your support cases from Apple devices using the excellent Apple Support App. If not already installed, the App can be downloaded from the App Store:

You might also visit the Genius Bar at your local Apple Store or Apple Authorised Service Provider (AASP) - where the technicians will be able to offer assistance:
