In my opinion that also depends on your own attitude, needs and expectations. I use a Moto G5 from 2017 running Android 8.1. Recently the battery started to swell and I replaced it with a third-party battery which is working fine. That was not a flagship phone when it came out, but it was a decent phone.
It is still working fine for what I use it for. I don't need a flagship phone. Most important is that I can use it for calling, google email and calendar, google maps, waze, ebooks. It is nice to be able to use a browser on it, but honestly, on a phone screen a lot of web pages have 20% useful content and 80% commercials that stay in place during scrolling. And finally it's also useful to use some "apps"... and this is more out of need than out of want: my impression is that a lot of apps are just a bloated repacking of a mobile page. A bit annoyed by all those companies that insist on having their own app for something that could be a mobile web page and in reality often is nothing more than a wrapper around a mobile page.
Long time ago, I was really happy with Cyanogenmod on an Htc Desire... never tried LineageOS, maybe I should try that to get a more recent Android, but not clear what it would actually gain me.
