I think the two related 492932 and https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=492861 
are from some qtquick layout quirks caused by https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-126196
 that would force to set both the title and the main body of the notification to an hardcoded maximum width for the time being
Comment 3 Marco Martin 2024-09-16 13:29:03 UTC
also this is exactly what https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-workspace/-/merge_requests/4598 was set to do.

it made popups stretchable to wider sizes, but we don't have fine grained control on text hints like "if that'a an url, you can elide it" so either it can become very wide, or it can't

Limit maximum popup width and stretch body label

Add a maximum, kinda hardcoded popup maximum width to not
make notifications so exceedingly large, keep headings
expanding, while still wrapping
