It's here - https://o.steinberg.net/index.php?id=15263&L=1

I downloaded the updated Download Assistant, and the new Activation Manager is part of it.

I logged into it, and it looks pretty simple. 3 tabs - something like Products, Activate, and De-active.
Of course, it doesn't show any licenses, because those will only show up in 12 and above.

I upgraded to Dorico 4 and it worked like a charm. It keeps track on which computer it is installed by an unique long set of characters sequence.
AMD Ryzen 3900X & RX 5700XT, 128GB RAM, Windows 11 Pro 64-bit
Waldorf Blofeld & Pulse 2, Akai MAX49 & MPD226, Steinberg UR44 & CMC controllers
Cubase Pro 14, Nuendo 14, Wavelab Pro 12, Dorico Pro 5, Rapid Composer v5, FL Studio 2024

Do they still support the “key”?
I do prefer having all my licenses on usb drive😉
Ps: Cubase 11 pro still works with the usb key

"Simple" is a good sign for Steinberg. They tend to add too many confusing options.
If you plan on purchasing your first Universal Audio hardware, you can get a free additional plugin. Just send a PM.

AFAIK - you'll still have to use the e-licenser for 11 and earlier. The Activation Manager will for 12 and above.

will be interesting to see if I can activate Cubase 12 without having an elicenser to activate Cubase 11 that I recently bought during the grace period. Support said it should work.

Cant wait to be done with dongle, I always have to check 10 times before I leave the house with my laptop. Nuendo 11 here

I wonder if Cubase will get something from Dorico's GUI. I guess it's more for a mobile version of Cubase (Cubasis)?
I think that I wouldn't complain if Mixer would look like this:

No way. Such a cheap plastic look

I like it a lot. But I doubt that it will be the case. If they at least will standardize all menus to one UI, it would be something.
