I'm a MEI (individual microentrepreneur). Does it make sense to register my trademark, or is it too soon?

It does make sense. Many MEIs start small, build a strong name on Instagram, and only then think about protecting it. Then they find out someone has already registered it. Being a MEI doesn't stop you from registering a trademark, and it even entitles you to a discount on the fee. If you're already selling under a name and a visual mark, it's worth protecting it early.
