Okay, lol, I just installed dunst again to use notify-send and now the prefix is there again for browser notifications which also use dunst now.
Whatever the browser used before didn't show the prefix.
So it's definitely related to dunst!

I think I figured it out. The A is a prefix set by dunst to indicate that the notification has an action (you can click on it), and the U shows that the notification has a URL with it.
You can disable this if you want, by editing ~/.config/dunst/dunstrc and changing the line show_indicators from true to false. If the file doesn't exist, then copy the default configuration file from /etc/dunst/dunstrc to ~/.config/dunst/dunstrc and then changing show_indicators to false
The issue I found this on, for reference: https://github.com/dunst-project/dunst/issues/599

Don't I feel dumb, I searched all issues here and the documentation online and absolutely forgot you guys had a man page. I figured it was something like that though. Sorry for wasting your time, that fixed it of course.
lol, this so much
I was almost there though. I used man 5 dunst (which opens the config documentation instead of the command documentation like man dunst) to make notifications follow the screen on which my mouse is currently on. But I didn't think about looking in there for my prefix problem, lol

You were right!
Thank you very much, well deserved sats. That prefix annoyed me so much.
A SN bounty success story, this post is.
