If you are in search of a FREE SwayWM installation and migration tutorial (including dotfiles etc.) I have just revised and updated 'such a beast'. You may find it at:

https://eirenicon.org/knowledge-base/sway-on-debian/

Be advised the tutorial is rather long and detailed. With any luck, it is also accurate. I believe this is my last large revision... although I hope to keep the dotfiles reasonably current.

Hmmm....It doesn't work for me in hyprland.The output also said that "output_to_wayland" is an unknown option.

Are you running 1.19+ of conky? Have you installed conky-all?

Are you running 1.19+ of conky? Have you installed conky-all? I am on archlinux and I didn't find "conky-all" package.I have install conky-cairo from aur, and it is 19.1.2.However,it is not working with out_to_wayland option.

I wish I had a good answer/ solution.

Have you asked on the Arch, Endeavour, Manajaro Forums? Perhaps someone there has an answer. My observation is that Wayland, in general, is a bit wonky and unpredictable with certain x11 tools and their operation. This seems it may be one of those. If you are in need to something similar to Conky, you might try EWW. I have seen that tool behave unpredictably at times as well.... but it's 'supposed' to be Wayland friendly.
