I would say start by changing your browser and search engine (lots of options out there today), and then set up your own domain for email hosting so you can try different providers.
There isn’t another YouTube with all that content out there, so that one is tough, but you don’t have to 100% de google, 50% is still good. 15% is still good.
Your own domain, but you’re safer not hosting your own email servers in general. Just wanted to be clear for anyone reading this. If your mail server is down you don’t get mail 🫠
I ended up using a service that isn’t Google for that with my own domain
Whatever name fits your fancy. Go with solid registrars like Namecheap or cloudflare.
Once you get your domain, you can use most any email provider to handle mail for that domain. Fastmail is really good. Or proton if you want the encryption.
Three R’s to deGoogling: Reduce, replace, remove.

That’s pretty much my setup, it is not super hard to get working, it’s basically just copying and pasting the magic numbers they give you
Gotta also recommended porkbun for a registrar, had a great experience with then.
