Out of interest, since Chromium is open source, is there anything stopping Opera, Edge, Brave, etc. just mantaining support for the old manifest? Like, I’m not sure why this is such a big deal for anything other than Chrome and Chromium.

IMO it’s pretty much the same case as email. With email you send data to some remote server which may or may not reside in the EU.
I’m not really sure what argument you can make that fediverse apps but not email break gdpr.
Or even something as simple as putting your email on a public website that may be visited by someone in the US.
You can actually see this here; beehaw recently blocked lemmy.world , so as far as Beehaw is aware, lemmy.world “doesn’t exist”.
As you can see, old posts remain on the instance (unless the admins go and remove them), but new posts don’t get received. I think you might be able to post on Beehaw’s mirror, but they won’t get shared with any other instances.
Of course, this is all subject to change in some future Lemmy version, because this sort of thing can be confusing and counter intuitive.
Fun fact: If you google those codes you find out that they are “real” codes, but they don’t actually activate Windows. I think they are something that are used as placeholders in the upgrade from Windows 8 to 10 or something, but don’t know the specifics.
ChatGPT actually can’t create new “words”, just regurgitate words that it’s seen somewhere before!
I will say, as I’ve grown older and more jaded, I’ve been finding the GPL more and more appealing…
Edit: Oh wow, why did a year old post show up at the top of “Hot”, sorry about bumping.
