Problem Description:
When I receive a notification via the macOS app, the notification text cannot be selected or copied. This limits usability when one wants to reuse or archive the notification’s content.

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Install and use the ntfy application version 1.3 on macOS 26.1.
  2. Receive a notification via the app.
  3. Try to select the notification text in the banner or Notification Center.
  4. No selection is possible; the notification content cannot be copied.

Expected Behavior:
It should be possible to select and copy the text of notifications, whether directly in the banner or in the Notification Center.

Additional Context / Information:

  • macOS version: 26.1
  • Application version: 1.3
  • Not sure if this functionality is available on other platforms.

Suggestion:
Make the notification text selectable and optionally add a “Copy” button.
