I really wanted NextCloud to work but the Android docs app is absolutely hopeless.

It's like pulling teeth to work with that interface to edit documents. It's hard for me to believe that anyone actually uses it.

I've never actually used it for editing documents, I just use it more as a Dropbox replacement for backing up / syncing files.

In that case, depending what your actual acceptable risk/goal is... continue using Google Docs and set up a regular backup? Your worst case is that Google Docs goes away tomorrow, and you still have all your data you just need to spend a bit of time restoring to a different account / setting up alternative software / etc and move forward from there. For most people I expect that's more than enough.
