You should be able to just use ssh/sftp. There are lots of great clients, and you can absolutely still use usernames and passwords, no public/private key stuff required. You can even use
ssh
andscp
right from powershell on Windows boxen if you’re so inclined. There’s winscp, and if you want filesystem mounting, there’s this: https://github.com/winfsp/sshfs-winFor macos and Linux, the options are far more plentiful.
Edit: there’s also file pizza, which is a file transfer thingy with no middle man that’s open source, although it’s not copyleft AFAICT: https://github.com/kern/filepizza
and similar tools. Not really what you’re after, I just think it’s neat.
It’s probably been 15 years since I used ssh. I’m gonna guess there’s better UI for it now, or at least a UI at all.
