Constantly crashing (with a CPU thread stuck at 100% for the notification process). Seems to get exponentially more frequent the more programs I have open. Is a widespread issue; trying to raise even more awareness so they release a point update for it soon - cos it's pissing me off!

You think it's widespread? I haven't heard of the issue until this post :)
I mean, my old friend MB Air ''2013 lived though a painfully long upgrade to Big Sur and works quite well.
I know, I might be pointing towards obvious things, but did you try to do anything to remedy that situation? Anything from simply booting into Safe Mode and back, or something a bit more time consuming as reinstalling macOS?

Nah I figured it out, thanks.

Every time I install a new app that requests notifications; when I accept, notification centre will begin perpetually crashing, especially when expanding 'more notifications'. Issue appears to fix with just a restart. Inconvenient but no longer infuriating

(Not a broken install btw -> I have a fresh Big Sur partition and it does the same)

It is more and more, going through the same... Something is definitely up with this. Running 11.2.2 at the moment and still no fix. Widespread is somewhat appropriate as this is something very particular and people are searching for a solution... Reinstalled MBP 16" and no change.
