To escape from the big corporations of the USA, as a user we have two options, either to use OpenSource alternatives, although not all of them they are free of influences from Google, MS, etc., or using products and services of European companies, which in general are rather more aimed at protect privacy (GDPR), although only a few are known to most. This is why I thought of using this thread to complete a list of the better European alternatives, starting with the link I put opening this thread.

European Office suite are eg. Nextcloud office from Germany or OnlyOffice from Latvia. But I think that with so much FOSS alternatives, Like LibreOffice, OpenOffice Cakkigra (KDE) and others, where it isn’t to determinate the country. You can even use SSuite, its a non-proft Hobby project from 2 Electricians, private, no logs, no ads, no cookies, no tracking, without any contact to big companies, which at least is the sense of this thread.
