Fresh install of 73 Linux, looks like some issues with Letter sizes and text formatting

Not 100% sure where to adjust these settings to fix this and make it cleaner.

I reduced the max width so Conky didn't take up as much screen real estate so I am guessing that is the issue. Edit your conkyrc file by running nano ~/.conkyrc. Look for this line close to the top of the file maximum_width = 400, and try adding ~50 to what you currently have and see if that clears it up.

Sadly it did not, what is the recommended method of restarting conky? I noticed when i kill -9 the process and restart it, it looks funky

Ok so I isolated the overwriting issues I was seeing. This was due to the usage of

own_window_transparent = true I set it to false, and no longer does the wierd overwrite stuff.

I have to play with the size issue a bit more but I have done a few mods that seem to work ok for now but I will make it bigger later

I have attached a pastebin for it below

Thanks for the update. Which OS are you using and what is the screen resolution?

Hey there sorry about that, makes sense that this would be helpful info!
