You can also benefit from the cloud while still avoid putting all your eggs in one basket. A few years ago I was happy to have all my life on Google because it's was so integrated, but recently because of (1) privacy issues are (2) risks of being banned arbitrarily, I decided to reduce my exposure to Google. So my email is Protonmail, my browser is Firefox and my search engine is Duckduckgo. I'm still looking for alternative for my calendar and files hosting. I might shell out a pro Dropbox account. What might be harder is Android and Play Services. I don't like the iPhone, and I don't want to bother with de-googlized custom ROMs either.
