    Not really an elegant solution, not my recommendation and probably not supported anymore but the page is still available if you know it's URL. You can get there by appending below URL to your site URL:

    /_layouts/15/sitemanager.aspx?Source={WebUrl}_layouts/15/settings.aspx

    You could test if this page still works for you.

    Alternatively, without making use of 3rd party solutions, you would end up using Microsoft's own SharePoint Migration Tool optionally combined with some custom development I guess.

    I think it's safe to assume this Feature will not return. Given the fact that creating a flat hierarchy of Site Collections subscribed to Hub Sites is (justly) considered a better approach over creating sub sites.
