Fractional upscaling messes up my other monitor

Hey folks!

I've maade the switch from Windows 11 to Linux. First intried out Pop! And i gotta say i got really confused. Switched over to Ubuntu because my work runs on Ubuntu and i wanted to get myself familiair.

I got everything set what i needed, except the screen.

I run a setup with a laptop and a screen connected to HDMI.

The scaling on my laptop feels a but far away and i tried messing with the upscaling. 125% is what i like the most. When i press "apply" the zoom on my connected monitor just fucks up entirely. I tried changing the upscaling from my monitor back to 100 and it changed my laptop back too.

Is there a way to keep the reso the same on my monitor while zooming in on my laptop?

I already set wayland to =true

Anyone able to help me with a guide? Already looked up a few things on the internet but nothing seems to work
