Does FileZilla run on Linux?

Verdict: Yes

Yes. FileZilla has an official Linux version, it is in every Linux app store, and it is the same program with the same window you already know.

FileZilla by FileZilla Project · Utilities · Has a Linux version

FileZilla is packaged for Linux by the project and by the distributions themselves. Debian and Ubuntu carry it, Fedora carries it, and it is on Flathub as well. Nothing about it changes.

Bring your connections with you. In the site manager on Windows, export to a file, copy that file across and import it on the Linux side. Every host, username and saved password arrives in one go, which saves an evening of retyping.

Install it from your Linux app store rather than downloading it from the web. Downloads from the project's own site have carried bundled extra offers in the past, and the app store copies do not.

It is free, there is no account, and the paid product is the server side, which most home users never touched.
