Windows 10: Display scaling issue with multiple monitors

I'm using my Thinkpad x260 at 125% scaling, and have an external monitor at 100% scaling (both are FHD monitors). If I set the external monitor as the main display, all Windows notifications pop up at the 125% scaling on the external monitor, and are weirdly cut off (not just large). It has been really bugging me so I've set the internal display back to 100% scaling but it kills my eyes (is only 12"). Is there a solution for this? I couldn't find anything when searching
