But most plants have quite generic leaves to start. Do you have Google lens or inaturalist seek apps to see if they can ID?

Could be wrong, but they look like forget-me-nots. I’d be tempted to let them grow a bit more first. If they are, and you decide you want less of them in the future, cut some of them back to the ground as soon as they finish flowering and let a smaller number go to seed. The original plants die when they set seed, so that’s a nice way to control spread.

Forget-me-nots, self-seeded from the year before.

The leaves aren’t right for forget -me- knotts.
Definitely weeds.

I’m almost certain this is actually lamb’s lettuce (Valerian locusta), not forget-me-nots. It’s a common weed; my garden is inundated with it.
Don’t eat any until you see the flowers, though, just in case. Lamb’s lettuce flowers are tiny and white.
