You don't need a crappy app. Just write down the seed someplace and compute the TOTP yourself. It's not rocket science.

edit: here's a cli tool for doing this: https://www.nongnu.org/oath-toolkit/oathtool.1.html

KeepassXC and KeepassDroid support TOTP tokens in the same record as your username and password for more convenience too
Furthermore, Flatpaks do exist since, like you've stated, it is easy to implement https://flathub.org/apps/search?q=totp
This is a pretty good one
