FWIW, I'm living a Google-free live now, and it works very well:
- DuckDuckGo as default search engine
- Own domain for email, forwarded to Apple's mail
- Apple map, Yandex map, Waze, Here WeGo for maps (depending on the country)
- For videos, I search them in DDG with "<searchterm> !yt", then copy the links I want and download them with `youtube-dl`
- Firefox and Safari
- Zoho as a replacement for online docs and spreadsheets
etc.
EDIT to add: I should say that I try to live Google-free...
