you also have disabled important security features. Or can you encrypt your LineageOS device and update it without problems finally?

You can definitely encrypt your LOS device and update it (manual or OTA) just fine. I have a Nexus 6 and have been doing it for months now, both with official builds and a custom build I was doing.
I have an encrypted S5 with LoS. I believe autoupdate just doesn't work on it with TWRP period, but it might be because of the encryption. Either way, I just download updates once a month and sideload them.
ah maybe this is was my issue, I was only trying with TWRP and it always failed (I tried last time May this year).
