Is there a way to upgrade without sideloading etc.?

No!

Official / Stable support dropped for these devices

• Easy Installer will flash the community or previously known as dev build for these devices. The stable builds for any of these devices if still being released will be stopped. Users will then have to switch to the dev branch. They can do so by flashing using the EasyInstaller. This would include data loss so take backups if required.

You can try an upgrade according to the LineageOS upgading instructions

NOTE: Following these instructions will not wipe your data. It is, however, recommended to save important data before doing so, anyway!

However, I would additionally and first install the current /e/ Recovery alias

• recovery-recovery-e-2.1-t-20240605406922-dev-instantnoodlep.img together with
• dtbo dtbo-e-2.1-t-20240605406922-dev-instantnoodlep. img
  and
• vbmeta-e-2.1-t-20240605406922-dev-instantnoodlep.img

and then install it on the basis of /e/Recovery /e/OS-T using the command

• adb -d sideload e-2.1-t-20240605406922-dev-instantnoodlep.zip
