Lightdm hangs when loading sway

This started happening around a week ago. Here's more or less what happens:

1. I turn my computer on and Lightdm shows the log in screen (webkit greeter);
2. I put my password and log in;
3. I get a black screen (no blinking cursor, just black) where I can't change to a TTY (had to activate sysrq + r to do it).

On the logs, it says X is repeatedly restarted (which is weird since I'm using sway). That also happens with Wayfire, another wlroots-based compositor.
However, I can log into kde wayland just fine.

Here is my lightdm.log:

Here is my /var/log/lightdm/x-0.log:

Also, I'm using linux-zen and my gpu is an RX 580 using the amdgpu driver.
