I'm afraid Plasma 5.24 is unfortunately no longer eligible for support or maintenance from KDE.

Plasma is a fast-moving project, and bugs in one version are often fixed in the next one. In particular, a huge number of multi-screen bugs were fixed in Plasma 5.27. So please update to 5.27 as soon as your distro offers it to you. If you need support for Plasma 5.24, please contact your distro, who bears the responsibility of providing support for older releases.

If this issue is still reproducible in Plasma 5.27, feel free to re-open this bug report.

Thanks for understanding!
