These latest 3rd gen 4K models come on a specific tvOS version (16.6) that is compatible with a software called TrollStore, which is essentially unlimited sideloading. I've loaded a few streaming apps on mine and it's awesome! Very rare these days to see anything jailbreak-esk available on current hardware much less from the factory! And for $100, this is a better streamer than my Fire Stick 4K (obviously) but also personally more enjoyable than I think an Nvidia shield would be. For me, all the ATV was missing was sideloading. I'm into the Apple ecosystem pretty deep too so this is the ultimate streaming machine for me.
Sideloading = installing an app without going through an "official" app store like the Apple App Store or Google Play Store.

Trollstore = an unofficial app store that allows you to install apps that are not in the Apple App Store.

There's usually a lot of tutorials for these things on YouTube or Reddit

Because Roku doesn't have a Steam Link app. Because this is the only powerful enough device to actually run Steam Link seamlessly (neither of my TVs with Android TV will run it smoothly anymore due to bloat and crappy hardware). Because Apple Arcade also run smoothly on this due to the fact that it has the same A15 bionic chip as my iPhone 13. This is the heart of the iPhone 13 in a small box and a very cheap price.

Try Moonlight. I stream games flawlessly to my 2016 Sony 65z9d.

Added information.

Retired DOD civilian employees can order from AAFES but cannot go into the stores. Online access only.

This list is incorrect. That is why I didn't post it. Any DoD civilian can now be a member regardless of living domestically or OCONUS.

Exactly correct. CIV living anywhere has access they just don't seem to want to broadcast it.

Call me ignorant of apple tv but help me understand why I need this if I have a smart tv?

The hardware in TV's is bare minimum. If you buy something external, it is far more likely to have a more powerful processor. Reduces lag and buffering too if your TV's wifi antenna is weak. Better experience all around in my opinion.

I believe he means did AAFES cancel anyone's order. They have a history of that on big sales.

Got my Apple TV 4K in the mail. iOS came in at 17.2. Am I screwed? There's no way to downgrade, is there?

What is sideloading used for? I just watch iTunes and my infuse app where I have cartoons and such downloaded. Can't see much appeal for much else
