Can someone explain what to do if it expired I saw this happened to a few people on here!

You go to Apple Final Cut Pro page and download again. You can download as many times as you want as long as the version is different. If the version has not changed since your last download, you need to wait until they update to a newer version.

Also, you now need Tahoe to download FCP. If you don't have Tahoe you need to upgrade and then download FCP.

FIXED by running the updated command to wipe the new .ffuserdata file location:

mv -vf ~/Library/Application\ Support/.ffuserdata ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.FinalCutTrial/Data/Library/Application\ Support/.ffuserdata ~/.Trash

People who land here from google search don't know what the Gist is and they just scroll the comments looking for a SOLVED or FIXED reply. Either way, you're a hero for posting this. Thx.
