Most alternatives have already been listed by others, here are a few I can also add:

Chrome browser -> Iridium browser

Play Store -> F-Droid, standalone APKs

I particularly like installing APKs. It's like installing software with an .exe in Windows. Some software vendors even provide you with an APK, i.e. WhatsApp. Some APKs need to be retrieved from 3rd party sites, which is a security downside though.

Apparently there's an app, extension, that will allow you to extract an APK from Google's Play Store? Anyone know something?
