screenshot of poorly rendered article

SUMMARY

The updated style in the internal browser for rendering posts displays preformatted content poorly, and constrains text to a column that is (in my opinion) too narrow. I think it would help if there was an way to control the wrapping width of the text, much like the settings for font size.

I asked on the forum to check if there were any customisation options I've missed, but haven't received any responses as yet. https://discuss.kde.org/t/increasing-wrap-width-of-rendered-article-in-akregator/29592

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Add a feed and do not have "Load the full website when reading articles" checked
2. View an article on that feed on a largish screen, especially one which contains code snippets

OBSERVED RESULT

See attached screenshot. The body text of the article is uncomfortably narrow, yet the YAML code snippet is running off the right-hand side of the screen because of the forced left margin.

EXPECTED RESULT

I can set a desired body width of my choosing. In the screenshot, the left and right margins would be about half the size and all content would fit comfortably.
