Sorry, I have modified it and added it to the main post.

IDK what fixed it, because I didn't do anything (just switched to windows for a moment) and now the wifi works!

This was both the source of and the solution to your problem.
Windows tends to keep its feet into the devices, especially WiFi and bluetooth.
Sometimes because the fast boot is set in power settings, sometimes for unpredictable reasons.

I assume you did a warm boot into Garuda from Windows. What you are experiencing is usually a side effect of dual booting Windows.

Make sure MAC Address randomization is disabled in Linux. Also make sure that the wifi power saving options are disabled in Windows. You can disable the option in the Windows device manager's advanced properties tab of your wifi adapter.
