/e/OS is just LineageOS with their own customization and integration.
There's nothing really ground breaking about "degoogling" on /e/OS.
There's this "tracker blocking" feature they provide but you'll achieve the very same with any DNS Filter. And I think in /e/OS case you can't customize the block lists.
They also provide an app store which integrates F-droid and Play Store together, you can just use Aurora + F-Droid on LineageOS.
Not sure if it's really worth it, I tried here on my phone and I didn't see anything interesting and different from what you'd achieve with other custom ROMs.
Maybe their support will be better since they compromise on maintaining the OS and fixing issues.
