I am trying to setup a 2.13inch Touch e-Paper on my Raspberry Pi4 and the display does not seem to be working. I have followed everything in this manual here https://www.waveshare.com/wiki/2.13inch ... HAT_Manual but it still does not seem to be working. When I touch the E-paper I can see inputs on my terminal which says that the E-paper is responding but the screen is not lighting up.

As the URL is wrong it is not possible to assist you. And the display is a output device and perhaps it has a "touch" function and that is a input device, so they are different devices in the same way a mouse and a display is different devices.

And an advice, to claim "it still does not seem to be working" isn't saying anything about what you have done and what your goal is! Read https://discord.com/channels/818384379197784084/1189386838788542464

maybe it has something to do with this error "setdaemon() is deprecated set the daemon attribute instead thread.setdaemon(true)"

Many SPI devices doesn't work with Wayland. Confirm that it works with wayland with WaveShare

The previous version of "Raspberry Pi OS" use X aka X.11 but the current version (Bookworm) uses Wayland as "graphic engine".
