Description

### Your use case

#### What would you like to do?

To be able to see the received message notifications when it's replying to a long message

#### Why would you like to do it?

When the _in reply to_ message is long, it can cause the newly received message to be completely pushed out of the notification. In DMs this can manifest as only showing your own message.

#### How would you like to achieve it?

We could reduce _in reply to_ messages to a single line or potentially drop their content all together

### Have you considered any alternatives?

_No response_
