I updated my stock fw just to check if it breaks my OLED's hwfly chip. Good news is hwfly chip seems to fail at first after reboot but quickly re-trained itself and booted to hekate (yellow light flashes then green light). Bad news is this update burns another fuse so sleep mode no longer works.. Anyway atmosphere should be out in a few days.
sleep mode no longer works"
What do you mean by that???

I fixed it (no clue how, I lost it for like ~30 minutes, found it, and the screen was on) but now it's not booting at all and stuck on a black screen again after trying to boot OFW through Hekate
I had AutoRCM on but now my switch isn't even booting another payload. I don't know what to do

I've never been through a CFW update before (didn't bother doing my Switch until two months ago), how is it usually installed on the user end? I'm wondering if I'm able to install the update on OFW right now safely.

Hekate will throw a warning about warmboot fuse mismatch when booting emunand, and sleep function no longer works (goes to black screen and never wakes up). Also you can't boot stock fw with hekate anymore, although you can always use reboot function in hekate or bypass hwfly's injection and go to ofw.

Most likely your console have AutoRCM enabled, press power button for at least 25 seconds to turn off, then press VOL- and without releasing it briefly press power and most likely you will get on to NYX (Hekate) then you now know your console is good, but will not boot CFW until Atmosphère get updated.

New to Modded Switch this is my first update I'm avoiding the nuisance of update highlighted everytime I go into a game.. but how will this go ?

will both Atmosphere & Hekate Need updating to get back to emunand?
what about AutoRcm how will that work?
will the Android payload injector app need updating?

Nope, still a black screen.
I do have AutoRCM, though.

Is this the case for everyone? So when you press your switch into screen off you will have to reboot it every time?

What I usually do is:

1. Move all atmosphere/hekate stuff to another folder in the card
2. Extract atmosphere/cfw pack + new firmware
3. Add optional (if you know, you know)
4. Use an app to send updated hekate rcm bin
5. Update firmware via daybreak (on CFW NAND)
6. Move atmosphere content folder back to correct location
7. Update Homebrew that needs 15.x fixes (such as themes, controller plugins)

updated my switch (since I can feel in my bones that Persona 5 Royal is going to have a version check in it), so now I'm waiting for Atmos updates. Wound up rebooting to stock so I could keep playing Xeno3.

Yeah no sh*t. Learn to recognize sarcasm.

Sarcasm Is hard to detect in online forums. Maybe you could use some sort of symbol to communicate to the reader when you’re using it next time to avoid this sort of thing in the future? /s
