I agree that it requires additional active effort, I'm not arguing against that. I don't agree with your original point that it's "impossible to provide any web service without collecting personal data", and it would seem you no longer agree with that either.
> It makes total sense that if you dare use a bug tracking software, you should definitely pay hundreds of euros per month to hire a proper DPO who will handle all the paperwork or risk being exposed as the mental lunatic that the EU commission believes you are.
If you willy-willy use bug tracking software that is needlessly collect and/or process EU individuals personal data, then yeah, you need to follow the regulations in the region you operate in.
If the collecting/processing actually serves a higher purpose (for your business and otherwise) then again, makes sense you need to follow the regulations.
