I just dusted it with flour as I was transferring it between my bowl and the loaf pan.
Definitely makes it more sticky and kind of annoying to work with.

Wet and sticky dough becomes much more pliable if you work it enough.
I tried a slap and fold technique for a while, like a more aggressive stretch and fold. It worked a bunch of air in and developed the dough so it was less sticky. It would take 15-30 minutes of work, though, so I've since been playing with water content and an easier stretch and fold to save time and effort.
