Polybar i3 no workspace module appearing

I have just switched from the default i3 bar to using polybar (running Fedora 30, i3-gaps). I installed polybar following this guide: https://computingforgeeks.com/install-polybar-status-bar-on-fedora/ . I first tried running the default configuration for polybar and it worked except there was nothing on the left where the workspaces should be. I played around a bit to try to get the to work, but nobody in any forums I came across seemed to have a similar situation. I ended up copying the polybar config given in this answer, as they seemed to set up their workspaces in the i3 config the same way that I have: https://computingforgeeks.com/install-polybar-status-bar-on-fedora/ , but the result was the same - no workspace module appearing on my polybar. My polybar config file is:

# Before i3 v4.8, we used to recommend this one as the default:
# font -misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--13-120-75-75-C-70-iso10646-1
# The font above is very space-efficient, that is, it looks good, sharp and
# clear in small sizes. However, its unicode glyph coverage is limited, the old
# X core fonts rendering does not support right-to-left and this being a bitmap
# font, it doesn’t scale on retina/hidpi displays.

EDIT: Done some more troubleshooting and figured out that the issue is in my installation of polybar. If I run it from terminal it tells me that I have no built-in support for internal/i3. The command polybar -v gives me:

polybar 3.3.0-101-gf0c65e6

Features: +alsa +curl -i3 +mpd +network(libnl) +pulseaudio +xkeyboard

Although this is exactly what the guide (linked above, which claimed to be for installation for i3wm on Fedora) told me I should get as the output, it appears that the -i3 (logically) means it lacks i3 support (ref: https://github.com/polybar/polybar/issues/526) . I don't exactly know how to perform the installation correctly, but I will uninstall polybar and look for some better documentation on how to do it.
