I know there’s privacy issues that a lot of people here care about, but there’s no alternative for me that has email, photo storage, calendar, notes, cloud drive, and maps.
I could do all those separately, I guess, but why would I?

You use Google Calendar as your maps app? Google Maps is separate from Google Calendar.

Except for Maps Nextcloud offers it all, though. It’s not like there is any benefit of using Google Maps and GMail because there are no synergies at all.

Both Proton and Tuta have almost all of those except for maps. For maps, just use Organic Maps or OsmAnd.
I use all of mine separately anyway, because I care about my privacy and it works better. Google products have become so enshittified and bloated that most alternatives are faster at this point.
