Personal activities are explicitly exempted from the GDPR. You have to be engaged in "economic activity" for these requirements to apply to you. https://gdpr.

  >However, this Regulation applies to controllers or processors which provide the means for processing personal data for such personal or household activities. But hosting a website means processing personal data. This very much reads to me like the user is exempt. But the moment I am hosting a blog, I am providing a service which processes personal data. I fail to see how I would be exempt. And even if, at what point am I not? If I am taking donations? If I have a comment section? If I have accounts?

    All of these things are defined in the GDPR, even the on-the-face-of-it term "economic activity," which is what differentiates "enterprise" from "household and personal." You just have to keep reading. You can process all the personal data you want as long as you're not a business entity selling goods or services. The thresholds involved are also defined.
