some people get into a mess with that sideloading, there are a couple of long threads on here, but in those we did establish that you can mod the latest 2018 version of the Fire tablet ok if you follow the instructions exactly.
i got all the google stuff to work except for the proper gmail app, so I use the supplied email app instead.
all the premium epub reader in the google play store will work once you add the store
amazon seem to be getting over their big spat with google, youtube is re-enabled for Fire TV and amazon are stocking chromecast dongles...

Thank you.
