How to replace xshell + xftp under linux?

In this way, I have implemented a catalog of servers under my control and walking through them:
Keepass stores a list of servers with details (passwords for access through the hoster's console only, everything is keyed), links like ssh://
These links are configured to open via xshell - Double click in keepass on the link and the server console opens with the given tab name in the application. If necessary, from there, from xshell, with one click I open xftp to this server with pass-through authorization. And through it I can edit configs in, say, notepad++ or vscode.
It is this bundle that does not allow me to fully use Linux (ridiculous, problems with a convenient sssh client under Linux).
What have I tried.
SecureCRT - seems crooked and inconvenient to me. To be honest, I don't remember why I had to drop it.
The usual Linux console seems to be xfce, with tabs, plus a script that opens a new tab with the desired server, checks if a filezilla is running on that server, and starts a filezilla if not. In principle, tolerably, but annoying fileizll - I never found how to make it replace the file on the server, when editing locally, without asking for confirmation.
Similarly, the usual Linux console with tabs (guake, it seems, in that iteration) + mounting sftp to the file system, with a script. Disadvantages: if the server fell off, and its fs was open somewhere with me, everything freezes for me. Plus, if the server speed leaves much to be desired, everything starts to blunt while I try to open a folder on the server. The system file manager is not very suitable for this, in general.

I have 100+ servers, they change periodically, someone leaves, someone comes. I do not want to keep them in my head, I want to have a database from which it is convenient to open them, where it is convenient to catalog them. I want convenient access to editing configs not through the terminal, because I do not own vi (m) and do not really want to, but I often need to edit complex configs. The servers are all heterogeneous, so you will have to template the configs for each separately, I have not gotten to that yet.

This seems to be solved by the timeout and reconnect settings when mounting.
And yet mounting sshfs gives you the ability to edit files even with Notepad in Vine. And if it is immediately registered in fstab, then go in with one click. True, for hundreds of servers it should look intimidating ...
