Like for example that I shouldn’t put eggs in the freezer for more than 8 months or meat for longer than 12 months. How does it go bad when it’s frozen? Especially considering that we find hundreds of years old things/people frozen in ice and they seem to be in pretty good condition?

Food is chemicals and chemicals will degrade even when frozen. There is no bacterial growth, but the quality of the food will degrade to the point where it will not taste the same anymore.
This is why in research settings liquid nitrogen is used for preserving biological and sometimes chemical samples for a very long time. 0 degrees C is still very far above absolute zero and chemical reactions do still happen.
