What would you modify in this list of best 1:1 Google app replacements?

 YouTube app ==> NewPipe
 Gmail app ==> FairEmail
 Chrome browser ==> Ungoogled Chromium/Bromite
 Google Play Store app ==> Aurora Google Play Store app
 Google calendar app ==> Etar  (perhaps with DAVx5)
 Gboard keyboard & stt ==> OpenBoard 
 Messages ==> PulsSMS (last known good version)
 Android App Drawer ==> Muntashirakon App Manager
 Google Contacts ==> OpenContacts
 Pixel Launcher ==> Nova (last known good version)
 Google Maps ==> OSMAnd~ (not 1:1 replacement, particularly for traffic)
 Google Voice ==> TextNow (but not really a 1:1 replacement)
 Google Play Services ==> Micro-G (signature issues on non-rooted phones)
 Google search ==> DDG search
 Google Drive ==> nextcloud,sync.com (not sure, I don't use 'em)

Anything else to replace Google on a phone that has no Google Account
set up on the phone?

Note: You can have a thousand Google Accounts; just don't set the phone up
with any of them. That one action provides privacy like you can't imagine.
