[Bug 1826053] Re: Notify send is unreadable

 

notify-send issues signals that can be presented by any software that
listens for them. The software displaying notifications in your second
screenshot appears to be gnome-shell. gnome-shell also displays the
dialog in your first screenshot.

However, since the bug is affecting only parts of individual text
characters, and only in a VM, it’s probably not a problem in gnome-shell
but rather in the particular VM software you’re using.
