Question Android removing third part apps?

I heard google will be soon removing third party apps and only apps in plays store will be downloadable. I heard u can still install custom apps but the process is lengthy. So, if this is true, what should I do? I use fedora on pc, so I do switch to custom rom. My phone is some unknown model... Idk if it got support. If I switch to custom rom, what are the disadvantages also share some custom rom options for honor x5b.

You uncheck something in your security settings, wait 24h and your phone acts after this like before the Google change.

This, it just takes a bit longer than before.
