The problem with settings I reported in my previous message was fixed by a reinstall and restart. There is a suspicious bug report on the Kde bug tracker about bad directory traversal permissions created if settings are used right after installing without a restart in-between.
Same, no issues here 
Just installed as well without issues, did it as follows:
yay -S plasma-login-manager
sudo systemctl disable sddm.service
sudo systemctl enable plasmalogin.service
Restarted and worked without issues (still need to remove the SDDM user (userdel -r sddm), but didnt dare to do that command just yet).
I then I applied my desktop settings to the new login screen and that looks very nice now. I also noticed after logging in, there was no refresh rate switching, so finally my login screen has the exact settings as my desktop, even my portrait monitor was positioned properly!
Finally, that was so annoying that the portrait monitor was positioned wrong and at the default 60Hz refresh rate with SDDM (my monitors are 144Hz). I know it could be changed in a config file I believe, I did that at some point a long time ago, but it was annoying.
I love KDE man, always doing amazing work with their desktop.
Do not delete the user if you haven’t uninstalled SDDM; it doesn’t make sense and would leave SDDM in an inconsistent state if you decided to use it in the future.
