I cannot seem to be able to cd into any folder anymore btw.

I'm not sure how, but it seems your database file has gotten corrupted. Unfortunately, the only fix is to delete the DB:

rm ~/.local/share/zoxide/db.zo

@ajeetdsouza I temporarily moved it to .old to be able to resume work; Are you interested in any specifics of it? I clearly can't send you the whole file, but if you want me to look into it for some hints let me know!
