If you don't need anything fancy, Finder's own ”Go -> Connect to Server” menu option can open FTP sites.

I'll second the Transmit recommendation. As a bonus, it nicely supports AWS S3 and S3-compatible object stores.

Filezilla is free and cross-platform. That was a lot of the appeal to me.

I don't think you can count it as free if it comes loaded with malware.

To be clear though, it's the SF installer not FZ itself. You can most certainly go and compile it yourself.

Filezilla isn't malware. The SF installer is malware

I use CyberDuck which has free edition and is open source too. It doesn’t support Linux although.

How does Transmit compare to Cyberduck?
