You don't need to be not-GDPR-compliant to display ads and do user tracking. Just inform the user and give them the option to opt out of tracking / storing data. Ads won't be as optimized for the user, but they'll still be there.

And of course they can offer a subscription.

You also don't need to be tracking anything to be non-compliant.

Of course, offering a subscription means tracking users means being subject to the GDPR!
