I have totally replaced Drive/Docs/Sheets with Nextcloud [1] + OnlyOffice [2]. You still get online cloud storage and online editors with the bonus of using the widely popular (OOXML standard).

As far as Gmail goes, I have heard really good things about Fastmail (as others have mentioned) or if you want to host your own, I highly recommend checking out mailu.io.

What do you use to host nextcloud?

I just have it running in Docker on a DigitalOcean droplet (alongside several other services).

But there are quite a few other options, from renting a managed instance to buying a hardware device with it preinstalled. https://nextcloud.com/yourdata/

For anyone who is interested in self-hosting stuff like Nextcloud but is not ready to dive into the deep end of server management, I would highly recommend checking out https://yunohost.org/. Basically it is a Linux "server" OS that tries to make it as simple as possible to install and manage services like Nextcloud.
