All high quality, but in order of most to least detail:

Personally I'm not a fan of EFF or AFT, and UFO was both horribly bloated and clunky as hell, and isn't ported to SE. Any of these could need compatibility patches depending on your mod list.
3
4
- Multiple Followers Lite (My current preference. Incredibly lightweight, allows for 7 vanilla package followers in addition to most of the ones below, but some people seem to have unexplained issues.)

- Simple Multiple Followers Advanced (Heavier than MLE, but still fairly lightweight for what it has. May have some inventory issues. Originally by Kuertee, a generally underrated author.)

- Extensible Follower Framework (Even heavier, but designed to be efficient. Read instructions for INI changes, but these should probably go in a unique INI named after the plugin. Requires a compatibility patch with a few things, such as RDO linked below for Maxine. Still supported and active, and is considered the standard these days.)

- Amazing Follower Tweaks SE
16
Not going to give a link here. Don't touch it. It's as past its prime as UFO and has significant hard-coded data issues that cause large conflicts with mods that add spells as well as followers that may use these spells or have custom AI.

- REQ: Relationship Dialog Overhaul (Required for Maxine and Raeza, recommended for others. Read instructions. Complex load order requirements, can conflict with several common things, but patches are available in a lot of places.)

** Highly Unique Followers **
27
Most of the followers here have their own independent framework, so beyond script and AI performance issues you could use them all together, and then add a vanilla and beast companion on top of that. More if you use one of the follower frameworks above.

These use the vanilla follower packages and generally aren't nearly as detailed, but are still overall high quality.

When using the combined mod with both of them, they're each weaker and intended to be used as a pair. If you get "Nib's Male Followers" found below, just use the "Only Kharjo" version as Ja'dirr is included in Nib's.)

** Vanilla Follower Compilations for Variety **
114
These follow the theory "less is more". They aren't necessarily bad by any means, but other than being possibly unusual (like the monster and beast ones), they're more for world flavor and options than anything else. They go well with the follower frameworks above to take a bunch of them with you and have a whole party!
