Hello everyone! 
Im new to Arch's ecosystem, I come from using Debian for the last 3 years as my daily driver. I kept hearing wonderful things about Garuda, so here I am giving it a shot.
I apologize in advance if Im missing anything important to share, feel free to ask and I'll post whatever we need to get this done.
This is a fresh install of Gnome Garuda, up to date:

Garuda (2.6.10-1):

Relevant software: NetworkManager
Windows dual boot: No/Undetected
Snapshots: Snapper
Failed units: samba.service
The reason that brings me to create a new topic is that I havent found the exact information I currently require.
Since I installed conky (and I tried both ways: using the GUI and the console with the command: sudo pacman -S conky) on Garuda I have an extra instace of Conky running at startup:
❯ ps -aux | grep conky
coder 8767 0.7 0.2 613856 36548 ? Sl 15:40 1:05 conky --daemonize --pause=1

❯ pgrep -o conky
8767
Being the process 8767 the one that shouldnt be there. Now, I went through all the documentation I've found regarding this topic and as you all already know I've found nothing:
- Garuda Linux
- Arch Linux - Conky Wiki
- Arch Linux - Conky Package
- Garuda Linux Wiki
-
Conky Github Repo
and conky.cc (I cant post more than 5 links)
Every single time I power it on or reboot my computer, that extra instance is there. Would really like it to stop. I already have got two instances running tweaked to my liking.
What makes noise in my head is the following:

The package content of Conky for Arch gives no indication of a script or file that would tell the OS to set a new instance to autostart. As of now, Im out of ideas and places to look.
I'll list the content of directories of interest:
❯ lla /etc/conky
ls: cannot access '/etc/conky': No such file or directory
❯ lla $HOME/.conky

I dont know what Im missing, I'd really appreciate if anyone would be so kind to point me in the right direction. Thank you very much in advance!
