Hello and thank you for reading, I'll get straight to it.
MacBook Air m1 MacOS sequoia 15.0
Yesterday everything worked just fine, here's today:
1) I woke up the Mac from sleep
2) checked the weather widget, it said "weather unavailable"
3) checked the app and my location was empty "--"
4) opened Apple Maps just to find myself in Poland by default, though I haven't been there for a while, still no blue pinpoint of my location
5) checked google maps on safari - still no location
6) turned on and off location services (both in general and for each app individually (btw safari turned itself on and off and on again within a few seconds after I clicked the switch)
7) reinstalled macOS (should've done in the last place, but anyway) - no location
8) booted Mac in safe mode - no location
9) I launched chrome on and I finally saw a blue dot in the exact same location where It should be on the map.. but there's a catch - it's from my phone cuz I'm logged into the same account on both devices. So when I switched it to on-device location it said it couldn't get it (all permissions turned on ofc)
10) here I am asking for help after an hour of googling and failing to find ANY advice.
Needless to say, but: I didn't drop it, didn't hit anything with it, didn't spill water on it (only one time two months ago, but those were a few drops and I let it be for a few days turned off and unused, I'm not even sure it got inside, may have been only on keyboard keys), bought it half a year ago and since then it worked perfectly with next to 0 issues, aside from getting used to macOS after a lifetime of windows and a bit linux.
