Latest version of my favorite FTP manager FileZilla seems get rendering issues on Fedora 41 and Ubuntu 24.10
Thoughts to replace, but conservatively, I don't know any better app..

If you're into the terminal there's the old standby Midnight Commander. For GUI there isn't much. Maybe gFTP?

Thanks, will try gFTP tomorrow as coding all the time until want open this bugged filezilla. Wonder, if I'm alone with this rendering bug (on scroll) or mozilla definitively abandoned this client?

I never thought mozilla were coding filezilla, but it make sense. For other solution there are many file manager system that have ftp and sftp connection, I use pcmanfm for example and I mount my SSH home on there in a couple click. I normally use only SCP or rsync myself and rarely reach for filezilla although I use it when really needing it.

you have surprised me, haha!
So gFTP looks useful in first view, even GTK 2 yet, at least not Electron with it JS hell.

Filezilla has nothing to do with mozilla! I had to double check but I think the name is more on reference to Godzilla!

I can't believe I didn't think of this, but the big file managers for Linux also support FTP/SFTP. Thunar, dolphin, nautilus all support typing SFTP://your.server.here

sure, knew that, already use nautilus as webdav client for yesterweb,
but for some reasons FileZilla predictable for me by years of usage, for example have disabled drag-n-drop feature there, know how to import settings etc, but last time it rendering wrong, here is screenshot what do I mean:
maybe QT issue on wayland
