Are there any de-googled/maintained operating systems I can use with a Moto G Stylus 5G 2021?

I’m in the US and poor (shocker) and cannot afford a new phone. Are there any alternatives to base Android that I’m unaware of? There’s an article on how to switch it to LineageOS, but I feel like that is a brick waiting to happen since I’ve been to LineageOS’ page and they mention nothing about support for my device. Am I just SOL until I can manage to get a new phone?

There is a device compatibility page on the /e/OS website (we are on /e/ almost family-wide here); I see plenty of ‘Moto G’ but I don’t know enough details on your model… /e/OS is efficiently degoogled, with G. closed parts all replaced with open source equivalents…
