Google keeps going I'm the wrong direction, if I wanted Apple controls I would get apple

Hope this gets fixed. If not I refuse to downgrade. The Android TV store lacks way too many apps, and while many apps are not intended for TV use, they are good enough.

How about adb?

Dont see anything different, sureley you just check 'Unknown Sources' and it will allow you to install? It's just a warning

It's missing the one app permission that is added to O. For example on phones you now have to enable the ability to install apps from other apps - that's the one that is missing.

Does it effect apps that are already sideloaded?

Leave it to Google to neuter something useful yet again!

Did you ever manage to figure out a solution?

From my research it can be bypassed.
