I'm running e/os on my FP6 and it's a great de googled alternative!
I'm using GrapheneOS on a Pixel 7a which I bought just to flash it. Google Android just ran on it for the obligatory update before the flashing. It's just very secure and that's what I like about it. I'm not so sure about /e/ even though it's being supported by semi prominent people here in DACH.
For me any concerns about e/os are overshadowed by buying one of the most sustainable and "ethical" phones there are currently available, and not supporting google.
By using /e/ os you are supporting google because /e/ os is not degoogled
