Some additional information about these models. Out of this list I would only consider 4K (2nd Gen) or 4K Plus. 4K (2nd Gen) and 4K Plus are the same device, just rebranded.

Both models have 2GB of RAM (which is the same amount of RAM 4K Max has). Both devices have 8GB of onboard storage, about 4GB of which will be usable. Both of these devices run on Fire OS 8 (based on Android 11), so they still support side loading. Both devices have faster MediaTek MT8696D processor, compared to other models on the list.

Note: You can expand storage on most of these models using an OTG cable and a storage device of your choice (USB thumb drive being the easiest).

Why I would skip other models:
Fire TV Stick: Slow processor, and only 1Gb of RAM. Released in 2014, they really struggle nowadays.
Fire TV Stick 4K (1st Gen): Only 1.5Gb of RAM. Older Fire OS 6 (based on Android 7.1). About 30% slower processor than the 2nd Gen model.
Fire TV Stick HD: Only 1Gb of RAM and runs Vega OS, so no side loading. Tops out at 1080p.
Fire TV Stick 4K Select: Only 1Gb of RAM and runs Vega OS, so no side loading.

There are a few other differences in WiFi (5 vs 6) and Dolby support, but I don't find them as limiting, and this post is long enough.

Are these still sideloadable? Would love to have a recommendation on an oldie but goodie, since the new ones are locked down.

These run Vega, so no sideload nor bootloader unlock.

Also the Plus and 2nd gen are the same thing, so you're just paying for refurb rating.

Yep.

Almost to the point where they have to give them away for you to suffer through the ads, inability to use launchers, install third-party apps, etc.

I just got a Fire TV Stick 4K Plus (same sa Fire TV Stick 4K 2nd Gen) from woot two weeks ago, and it still runs on Fire OS8 not vega. It's sideloadable! As I know, only the low end 4k and HD, is on vega OS.

Guys I used an offer at Dunkin for $2.00 for any med hot or cold coffee beverage 10days ago and they throw you random offers after you make your payment to cash out. $4.99 Hulu Disney for 3months... Sirius or Audible for 3months(cannot recall which), and then I got offered 1 yr of AAA roadside for myself and a family member+ I receive one of those exact same fire sticks from Amazon(they overnighted it after I entered the code). I was offered a $100 AAA Travel credit(but didn't .look into that, figured it'd be more trouble than it's worth)... Anyway, I'm unsure if I just got really lucky with the odder, or if Google targeted ads stepped in, because that same night people were looking into a($26~ I 'think'....) 1yr AAA Offer(posted on SlickDeals). I found out(like many of you) that it was only offered on a per state basis, and no West Coast states were eligible...🤷 So I could've been tossed a bone by targeted ad's, but it's worth tossing three $1.50 donut holes in your Dunkin App's cart, and see if you can get targeted for the same deal(but not before 'first,' sprinkling some 'AAA deals/offers' searches in your device's browsing history on that same day... Worth a try.)
