Hi there guys. I recently ran into an issue with kde plasma where the plasmashell wouldnt start, hope someone can help me out, I tried troubleshooting it but a reboot, a timeshift restore and other things did not do anything, I'm stuck at a black screen where I can open applications but the desktop is just gone. Here is the error message:

And if that helps: my distro is manjaro, my kernel version is: 5.15.28, and my plasmashell version is 5.24.3. Thanks for the help!
