Missing file picker dialog

A few weeks ago my file picker dialog boxes stopped working. When I click 'browse' or 'open' on any application, be it my browser, steam, discord, ide, the file picker dialog does not appear.

I am not using a DE, I manually install my WM and File Manager. This is the same setup I've been using on multiple computers for about 8 years now, Arch with i3 launched via startx. I've got pcmanfm installed, although I typically just use the terminal for managing files. I don't recall uninstalling anything that might have caused this, I've looked through my .histfile at all my pacman commands. I've also tried installing a few other File Managers to see if they would somehow re-add the file picker.

My google-fu is weak, I can't even find people with similar problems.
