LineageOS vs /e/OS? (piefed.social)

I am wondering what is better for both privacy AND security, I already installed Lineage but I'm fine with switching to /e/OS.
I've heard Lineage isn't good for security, but I know very little about /e/OS.
The phone is a moto g power 2021 so it doesn't support GrapheneOS.

i've used lineages os with micro g and /e/OS too

they're pretty similar
with some differences ... not really security related

/e/OS dosent have the feature to change the accent color
it comes with munera apps preinstalled
the camera app in lineage os is way better
e/OS homescreen just have 1 page for widgits
e/OS dosent have that audio manupulation app preinstalled
and last
/e/OS comes with Advance Privacy ... its just 3 options to try protect users from app trackers and ads ... hide geolocation and ip

a little note ... the app store dosent works sometimes ... it never worked for me and the map app sucks .

i cant lock the bootloader
the security is pretty much same in every non graphine custom rom

make sure usb debugging is disabled thats all
