Bug Description
This bug might be a duplicate of 335383.
I'm filling it because the current body font (0.8 * applications font) is too little in my opinion. I don't think it should go below 0.90 (or even 0.95) * the apps size, so that it remains readable, even if it means "bigger" notifications (which won't be harder to read since each line will be more easy to read with a bigger font).
I think the correct thing to do is to ask upstream devs to put reasonable amounts of text, not to try to compress their text into too little notifications.
See the attached screenshot on my 15" laptop.
