proftpd.
He knows how to store his users in a file. And it is configured with a couple of lines in the config.
Adding a user with one command.
If there are not many users, it is very convenient. And system users do not breed and everything is clear in the file. No need to set up any backend in the form of a database to store users.

proftpd, vsftpd depending on the requirements, something on one is better, something on the other.

vsftpd (because of the name, heh).
And it is better not to use ftp at all in the 21st century, but to switch to sftp.
