Sideload on Chromecast without installing sketchy apps? (lemm.ee)

Does anyone know a way to sideload apps on the Chromecast without installing some sketchy "file uploader HD" app?

All the guides I can find online recommend installing some random file transfer app.

Can't get termux or f-droid, nor Firefox, chrome or even apkpure

I just install apps on my android tv with adb. But it all sucks, no useful alternative app store has an actual useful UI that works on the big screen. Updating is a pain, there's an app or two that help but they all a pain because it's almost impossible to navigate on the big screen with a remote control.

So, really, use adb.
