To elaborate on this black screen thing, seems like other people have this
issue too but it is pretty uncommon, where kde will go completely black until
rebooting:
https://discuss.kde.org/t/black-screen-when-turning-on-a-second-monitor/26948
Not sure what triggered it for these other guys with a second monitor, but this
strange behavior happens to me after a gpu reset. The gpu reset is on me. I
guess maybe the gpu driver is not as stable for undervolting compared to
windows or something, because even a less aggressive setting would still be
unstable. I increased the offset even more now so that shouldn't be an issue
anymore

But I found a fix for this black screen behavior. You can just use one monitor
which would suck, or do a fresh reinstall which I do not recommend, but the one
that fixes it without a bunch of hassle is just deleting the two files in
.config found on this solution here:
https://discuss.kde.org/t/reset-all-plasma-settings-at-once-and-start-tiling-feature-on-command-line/9503

This resets plasma settings and after doing this I have no issues. Another
thing is apparently setting the monitor color to prefer accuracy instead of
efficiency could create the grounds for this to form. Some people fixed their
issue by changing that but it didn't work for me. But I don't notice a
difference between the two settings anyway so I will just use the default
efficiency setting. I also deleted kwinoutputconfig.json in .config just to be
sure, since that has the monitor information. Hopefully I do not encounter this
again 💀💀
