It seems like Gnome requires [`xdg-desktop-portal-gnome`](https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/xdg-desktop-portal-gnome).
 that has been removed to be installed.
It [turns out](https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/libadwaita/-/issues/732) that things used to work due to a fallback path that has been removed now.
Installing the `xdg-desktop-portal-gnome` package and logging out resolved the issue for me.

For bonus points: make sure to check your user config (on my system it can be found under `~/.config/gtk-4.0/`) to check if you did not overwrite any dark-mode settings if the issue is not resolved after installing the package.
