Job for user@1000.service failed

Hello
so I just updated my system, but then I noticed that the pulseaudio daemon wasn't running. Then I noticed that running systemd --user status does result in

Failed to read server status: Process org.freedesktop.systemd1 exited with status 1

Then running systemctl status (without --user) shows it's degraded, with the jobs that failed to start being

● mdmonitor.service loaded failed failed MD array monitor         
● user@1000.service loaded failed failed User Manager for UID 1000

Then I tried to start user@1000 (my uid), which results in

Job for user@1000.service failed because the service did not take the steps required by its unit configuration.
See "systemctl status user@1000.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.

Running systemctl status shows

● user@1000.service - User Manager for UID 1000

And checking the journal leads to

Dec 07 17:50:22 JosArchLaptop systemd[1]: user@1000.service: Failed with result 'protocol'.
Dec 07 17:50:22 JosArchLaptop systemd[1]: Failed to start User Manager for UID 1000.

-- 
-- Unit user@1000.service has failed.
-- 
-- The result is failed.

Logging out and in doesn't help, and .config/systemd/user/ only contains

dbus-org.bluez.obex.service

Now I have no idea why this fails.. Do you have?
Thank you..
