So far, I’m only using cost-free alternatives:
Gmail -> web.de
Android/Google Play -> LineageOS/FDroid
Google Search -> DDG/Qwant/Ecosia
Google Maps -> Openstreetmap/Organic Maps
Windows/Office -> Linux/LibreOffice
Netflix -> 🏴‍☠️streaming sites
Spotify -> internet radio/digitizing CDs bought directly from the band at concerts

The only service I haven’t replaced is YouTube (AdBlocked without account), which I use a lot, also for music. And I don’t see an alternative for it either.

    Thanks for the tip though. But AFAIK if these servers are in Germany the amerikaner schweine can still get to you, but the whole ethos of the company seems very cool.
