Yeah, I installed /e/OS on my FP3 and it was quite easy to install and update it. You won't be able to run stuff that depends exclusively on Google Play services (most notably banking apps) and for a while I had some issues to get a stable GPS (fixed later at some point), but aside from that I was happy with it.
