i think that is a calculation only op can make. the european union covers over 400 million people. making some early design decisions in what data you collect, how you store it, for a lot of people is an acceptable cost to open up to such a large quantity of people.
in fact, it think advising a founder that is bootstrapping their business that the only "reasonable" course of action is to exclude large swathes of the developed world is frankly, misguided.

This is exactly the kind of thing I'm talking about. "How you store it" very well may include "on any cloud server owned by a US company," including AWS, Google, and Azure. That's a pretty big issue for a solo founder with no legal advice beyond GDPR wishcasting on HN.
