Even a paid alternative is very iffy. Some jurisdictions like Germany have allowed it after a court ruling but most have not. Meta is also getting flak from the EU for their "accept or pay" model.

That is not really GDPR. That is the ePrivacy ( ie. The Cookie Law from 2009 ) directive that supplements but sometimes overrules GDPR.
https://gdpr.eu/cookies/ # Cookie compliance
Under the GDPR sites are emphatically NOT allowed to deny service over rejecting cookies.
Iirc the only valid options are providing a paid alternative or blocking service to the entire class of GDPR covered citizens.
