As the Fediverse grows more and more, rules and regulations become more important. For example, is Lemmy GDPR complient? If not, are admins aware of the possible consequence? What does this mean for the growth of Lemmy?

It doesn’t apply to purely personal use. See Article 2 section 2 ©. For shits and giggles would fall under that.
I don’t think a networked service repeating collected data to the internet would fall under “purely personal or household activity”.
The exception would make perfect sense for a personal address book or something like that, but if you manage to collect enough data to make leaks a problem for other people I don’t think you’ll get away with “just a personal project”.
I agree. I was replying to your comment that GDPR applies to private data collection for shits and giggles, which isn’t correct. For Lemmy, I’m certain it applies. GDPR applies to small churches even
