### Bug description

The Nextcloud dialogue is unusably small so you can't see the error message/unresolve conflicts:
![Nextcloud Dialog Pop! OS 2024 Fractional Scaling 150% 4K display](https://github.com/nextcloud/desktop/assets/64636731/18bc3d8a-a554-434e-abe6-e2b180a15d17)

### Steps to reproduce

1. Click on ion in indictors bar (top right in gnome)
2. Click 'open dialogue'

### Expected behavior

The dialogue should be big enought (or resizable) so that you can see list of activity/errors and interact with them.

### Which files are affected by this bug

N/A

### Operating system

Linux

### Which version of the operating system you are running.

Pop!OS 22.04 Gnome Xorg

### Package

Distro package manager

### Nextcloud Server version

27.1.10

### Nextcloud Desktop Client version

3.4.2

### Is this bug present after an update or on a fresh install?

Fresh desktop client install

### Are you using the Nextcloud Server Encryption module?

Encryption is Disabled

### Are you using an external user-backend?

- [ ] Default internal user-backend
- [ ] LDAP/ Active Directory
- [ ] SSO - SAML
- [ ] Other

### Nextcloud Server logs

```shell
N/A
```

### Additional info

I notice than why I move mouse over the dialgue the point icon reduces in size, and when I move mouse off dialogue it then goes back to expected size. I expect this has to do with fractional scaling which I expect nextcloud desktop client doesn't support properly.
