SOLVED: Systemd-boot not loading on new install on Macbook Air (2017)

I've been using systemd-boot for a while, but decided to reinstall arch recently on my 2017 Macbook Air. However, I can't seem to get it to work at all. On my previous install, there would be a weird loading circle in the middle of the screen but an otherwise fully functional set of systemd-boot entries underneath it, but now I just get the circle which freezes at some point, with no systemd-boot menu on screen at all.

I'm really at a loss. I have my esp mounted to /boot, I ran bootctl install, I created the same exact entries I was using before with the exception of updated UUIDs, and i have initramfs-linux.img, initramfs-linux-fallback.img, intel-ucode.img, and vmlinuz-linux all in /boot. I'm not sure if this is a problem with systemd-boot, my Mac's UEFI implementation being nonstandard, or something I've overlooked myself.

Thanks for letting me know I'm not alone, so at least I know the source of the error isn't me. I'll be keeping an eye on that GitHub issue.

Should I mark this as solved?
