I use LineageOS. Will this affect me? I'm getting unclear answers. Someone told me that the apps will be forced to verify the OS.

This will not affect you directly. This is implemented via Google Play Services, any phone not running that will not verify signatures.

hmm, I added GApps to my LineageOS, which includes Google Play Services.
