This is a standard functionality in kde plasma in the system tray.

Sorry, i'm a kde user but not sure how this would be done...? Would you kindly provide details, or a link to a how to?
There's a checkbox "Manually block sleep and screen locking" and you just check that.
Where in the system tray is it? Do we need to click the battery icon or something? Maybe because I'm on a pretty old version (5.18.6), I don't see that checkbox anywhere I looked.
Yes, it's in the battery applet. I'm pretty sure it's been there for a long time, but I think it was named differently before ("disable power management" maybe?)
Ah, yes, there's an "Enable Power management" checkbox, by default checked. Thanks.
Ah yes, of course! How did i ever miss that? I see it now; thanks very much!
In the XFCE power menu, this is called "presentation mode", works just as well
