Like our microbial ancestors. The backstory would be that oxygen levels plummeted and we had to adapt to survive, but we already had this capability leftover from 3 billion years ago. Among other things it would be very hard to start fires in this environment but there'd also be much less risk of electrical fire. Pretty safe to assume all fuel-burning engines just wouldn't work without supplemental oxygen

Those folks became aquatic but they were still aerobic. Anaerobic life is more likely to live off thermal vents and not have gills IMO.
