Using 3 monitors, one goes completely blank on certain pages in Lemmy. How do I fix this? (lemmy.world)

If I have my browser maximized in my center monitor, whenever I go to search on Lemmy or go to my inbox and it is empty, the screen goes completely blank/black. It looks as if it lost power. If the browser is not maximized, it wont happen. This happens whether I use Chrome or Firefox. Any ideas on how to start troubleshooting?

OS: KDE Neon 6.0
KDE PLasma: 6.0.2 (happened with KDE 5.x too)
GPU: Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 6GB

Does it happen on either of the other two monitors?

Super strange sounding issue, btw. Quite interesting.

Not at all. It only happens on the monitor connected to the HDMI port.
