Some of us limit how and when we use those tools, or avoid them entirely.
I use GitHub for code I want to share with the world and to access and work on code made by others. I don't use Dropbox daty to day (technically I have an old account with a few unimportant things on, but I only access it via the web). I use Google's suite of tools only for things I'm not really fussed about or to access stuff made by others (I do have a personal Gmail account but I basically only use it for mailing lists, password resets, and to get invoices and confirmations). I use tools like Slack, Discord, etc. where I'm required to for things I'm working on, but that's someone else's privacy call.
I could go on…
For my personal data I have a NAS at home (with encrypted backups to Glacier), use Syncthing pretty heavily, and a few (general e2e encryped) cloud services for specific use cases.
