Conky not autostarting anymore in Plasma 5.24

only line: plasma_session[1322]: org.kde.plasma.session: Starting autostart service PATH TO TRIED METHOD but no errors or such

yes, no dice

had it up to 10, but also no dice. Also the sleep before starting conky was at 20 at the maximum, also no dice.

ok, so I should definitely keep that in mind for various problems. The thing is that conky apparently did not even try to write anything in the failed attempts, see:

Edit: I just tried:
conky --daemonize --pause=1 >conkylog.txt 2>conkyerror.txt
and conky still starts, but conkylog.txt contains nothing, conkyerror.txt contains:

conky: desktop window (2000019) is subwindow of root window (6c7)
conky: window type - normal
conky: drawing to created window (0x3600002)
conky: drawing to double buffer
conky: forked to background, pid is 29800

so I guess,

actually is: Plasma can’t deal with errors in autostart applications now as long as they are not printed anywhere.
