I can reproduce this issue.
I also tried creating a new user, thinking it could be a config upgrade problem, but I saw the same behavior.

Something specific to Mageia and started with Plasma 5.8 beta?

KaOS Plasma 5.7.95 based live media displays panel digital clock applet just OK.

It seems that in Mageia /.config/plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc file does not contain any information about digital clock applet configuration...

No clock anymore for me either since plasma 5.7.95

Animtim gave the link to a bug Shlomi filed upstream.
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=369063

After removing the first (obviously wrong) character in 
/usr/share/plasma/plasmoids/org.kde.plasma.digitalclock/contents/config/main.xml


and logging out and back in, the clock works again
