the refresh and error are actually 2 separate issues

the refresh was caused by a method implemented for cache busting which was looking for asset-manifest.json which appears to have been removed in this version. I have implemented a workaround.

the TypeError Uncaught TypeError: (0 , _nonSecure.nanoid) is not a function at useRegisterNavigator.tsx:11:1 however, is caused by the following code within the @react-navigation/stack package...

useRegisterNavigator.tsx

import { nanoid } from 'nanoid/non-secure';
import * as React from 'react';

import { SingleNavigatorContext } from './EnsureSingleNavigator';

/**
 * Register a navigator in the parent context (either a navigation container or a screen).
 * This is used to prevent multiple navigators under a single container or screen.
 */
export default function useRegisterNavigator() {
  const [key] = React.useState(() => nanoid());
  ...

What was removed from v6.2.x that would cause this error with react-navigation?

I was able to resolve this issue by deleting my babel.config.js and then building the project.

It appears that cjs has been excluded from the compilation target.
facebook/create-react-app#12021
After adding the following code to webpack.config.js, it now works properly in my environment.

  config.module.rules.forEach(rule => {
    if (rule.oneOf instanceof Array) {
      rule.oneOf[rule.oneOf.length - 1].exclude = [/\.(js|mjs|jsx|cjs|ts|tsx)$/, /\.html$/, /\.json$/]
    }
    return rule
  })

This is working for me. I was facing this error having my app in web, starting and refreshing. But including customize webpack.config.js and including it solve my problem

To complete @s-kuniyoshi answer, here are the steps I followed to fix this issue:

1. Run in your terminal npx expo customize webpack.config.js (according to https://docs.expo.dev/guides/customizing-webpack/)

2. Copy the code below in your new webpack.config.js (according to Update to 6.2.1 causes infinite refresh on web #10)

const createExpoWebpackConfigAsync = require('@expo/webpack-config');

module.exports = async function (env, argv) {
  const config = await createExpoWebpackConfigAsync(env, argv);

  config.module.rules.forEach(rule => {
    if (rule.oneOf instanceof Array) {
      rule.oneOf[rule.oneOf.length - 1].exclude = [/\.(js|mjs|jsx|cjs|ts|tsx)$/, /\.html$/, /\.json$/]
    }
    return rule
  })

  return config;
};
