The PowerShell Deployment (PSD) extension for MDT is a very good alternative (pun intended as I'm part of the team) and it can be used from anywhere as the SMB restriction has been contained only to the MDT console. The rest is happening via SSL and web services. BTW, regarding the ADK, you can still use the 2004 version that gives you the ability to install 32-bit Windows 10 and 64-bit Windows 10/11. Give it a try https://github.com/FriendsOfMDT/PSD.
We have MDT and SCCM from Microsoft and they aren't going anywhere anytime soon. I still use MDT to create and deploy images with Windows 10 and 11 as well as SCCM. ADK for Windows 11 21H1 still works perfectly fine for both OS's in MDT. You just have to take a couple extra steps for Windows 11 captures. Windows 11 isn't radically different from Windows 10, and it's "unsupported" because there's no active development in MDT. The community is kind of taking up that support with PSD. At the end of the day it still deploys the same. And you can work around any issues with a google search. Also, keep an eye out for known issues and workarounds. https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/memdocs/blob/main/memdocs/configmgr/mdt/known-issues.md
