polybar is a status bar for i3wm.
and i have double checked my command is correct.
laptop-mode-tools is run as root whereas you'd want polybar run as your current desktop user.
On X11, this could be worked around but not a recommended thing to do. On Wayland, I haven't tried.

Yes. That cannot be done. Given this is not an issue and working as designed, I'm closing this issue. Please feel free to re-open if you think otherwise.
