TL;DR: This will not affect LineageOS directly. But it may affect users running the stock ROM on their device.

According to the blog post, LOS simply won't include the AndroidDeveloperVerification package. If that's really all (for now), people with custom ROMs who also mainly use F-droid don't have much to worry about. It might actually bring a few more people around to degoogled Android.
