This is what I use, which is slightly more complex because I have a wide
landscape monitor and a tall portrait one and want different behaviour
in each:

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
  (defun esf/display-buffer-in-side-window (buffer alist)
    (let ((fw (/ 80.0 (frame-width))))
      (display-buffer-in-side-window buffer
                                     (if (> (frame-width) 120)
                                         (list (cons 'window-width fw)
                                               '(side . left)
                                               '(slot . 0)) 
                                       '((window-height . 0.25)
                                         (side . bottom)
                                         (slot . 0)))))) 
  (setq display-buffer-alist
        '(("^\\*Async Shell Command*" . (display-buffer-no-window))
          ("^magit-[a-z]+: " . (esf/display-buffer-in-side-window))
          ("\\*\\(Backtrace\\|Compile-Log\\|DICT 
.*\\|grep\\|[Hh]elp.*\\|Messages\\|Occur\\|tex-shell\\|vc-\\(diff\\|change-log\\)\\|Warnings\\|WoMan
 .*\\)\\*"
           (esf/display-buffer-in-side-window))))
#+end_src 

This doesn't pin to a specific frame but does make the pop-ups appear in
the same place always in each respectively frame.  By the way, I use
exwm so I have one frame per monitor, full screen, generally.

HTH,
