At least part of the intent of the law was that websites would reduce the amount of tracking if they have to explicitly ask for consent. You can build your website with just functional cookies (session cookie, storing preferences like dark mode, etc) and cookie-less tracking, and go without any cookie popups.

GDPR actually has provisions against this kind of malicious compliance - the problem is a chronic lack of enforcement, despite it being trivial to detect with a web crawler.
