I'm thinking seriously about getting Google out of my life, and trying NextCloud.

Looking to get a personal account through a managed provider.

Does anyone have any experience with it?

How does it compare to ownCloud?

Any hosts I should look at or avoid?

Any apps I should get for it, or avoid?

Any issues I should be aware of before I switch?

My only advice would be to go full NextCloud at first for simplicity instead of trying to integrate it with other services.

That being said, if later on you're looking for a way to store images I'd highly recommend Immich, I just finished setting up my own hosting setup a few days ago and it is gorgeous.

Does immich have a good way to hide or lock certain photos? I'd love to share most of my photo library with my friends but there are some photos I want backed up that I'd rather not share

Kind of, you can share individual albums so it is possible to share all but one. This may or may not be practical though depending on your album structure.

Another option is to share your entire library but archive the photos you don't want to be seen.

It would be good of there was an official feature for this but these are currently the two best options.
