I'm not fully up to date when it comes to e/os as I haven't used it before. I believe it would be more private than the default os on fairphone considering google has been stripped out. I'd recommend doing research on the security updates of e/os, as if I'm not mistaken, these can often be significantly behind leaving you vulnerable.
If security updates aren't quickly implemented, as I think they're not - I wouldn't recommended using it.
DivestOS (rip) had a chart of updates/security patches. 1st was GrapheneOS, 2nd (right behind, often same day) was DivestOS, LineageOS was often 3rd, then CalyxOS, e/os was well out of date.
Interesting to know! Thanks so much❤️
