Google. Been trying to de-google for over a decade. Many of my random asks for alternatives have been answered with "just use google, it's free".
Biggest problem is phones because I hate Apple more than Google. Every 6 months or so I look into linux phones, but walk away unimpressed.
I think the best you can do for phones is get one with good hardware and put a degoogled ROM on it
Yea, I've checked LineageOS and a few others out, but my phone isn't supported.
That's what I get for also hating selfie camera notches/cutouts. Most of the phones I get aren't popular models. If you know of one for the Nubia Z60 Ultra, point it out.

There is lineage support now although it is still a bit wonky
Thank you for this! Most of those bugs wouldn't bother me except for the no bluetooth audio. I'm going to keep tabs on this now that I know it's almost ready.
I actually just yesterday pulled the trigger on deleting all my contacts and calendar info out of google and now they're backed up to my webdav server.
