Google Apps (YouTube, Play Store e t c) stopped working, tried fixing it and made it worse, not I can't even make a backup to wipe the system

Mi 9 SE, MIUI 12.5 (Android 11)

Ok, so 3 days ago I had an issue where the YouTube app, when started, was loading the feed infinitely, I decided to go to Play Store and update google services, but the Play Store wouldn't load past the triangle logo.

I've downloaded the external apk and tried installing that, no result with "app not installed" message.

Next, I've tried deleting the Google Play Services (com....gms) and installing them again, but they wouldn't show up in the app list.

Next, I tried to flash the MIUI with ADB without wiping the storage, done that successfully but that didn't change anything.

I'm now trying to at least backup my photos via ADB and re-flash the MIUI with a full wipe. But even the com.android.backupconfirm window won't load for me to launch the backup process...

Please help.
