Oh to have this problem. Let me guess, your side project is multi-cloud replicated, CDN fronted, data center backed?

This has nothing to do with over-engineered infrastructure.

As soon as your side project processes and / or stores user data GDPR applies to you.

Good luck with providing the requisite documentation and data processing agreements if authorities ask for them and you didn’t prepare those in time.

You live in EU? Sure. You live in US? Nope, it does not apply. There's no nexus. EU can go and pound sand.

That's not correct. As soon as you want to do business with someone currently located in the EU (doesn't even have to be an EU citizen), GDPR applies, no matter where your company is located.
