/e/ is not very degoogled. DivestOS or GrapheneOS would be better choices, then maybe CalyxOS.
Why is /e/ not very degoogled? It is through and through.
Here is a thorough analysis of /os's security and privacy.

Tldnr: it's alright but but grapheme, divestos or calyxos should be preferred if those are available on your device.
Problematic seems the unique device id /e os generates and sends on every update and also security updates for the integrated webview browser have been severely out of date in the past.
