Any idea how to / if it's even possible to mount an FTP server on Android?
Please respond

I bought and use solidexplorer through gapps play store. It connects to ftp servers, idk how you define mount. Maybe this thing is using gvfs in the background. Idk.

I may be misunderstanding something, the article assumes the Android device is the server while I need it to be the client.
Ghost commander on fdroid can

Oh sorry.
Any file manager can do that.
I use ES explorer

Remote shares on sony phones, mounts remote server as a folder in local storage

ghost commander is the only one I know that can mount a lot of diff shit.
it's terribly difficult to use though.

Thanks.
My ultimate goal is to stream audio from the server to replace services like Spotify/GPM. Would sftp be better or something else entirely?

You're better off just using an HTTP server in that case.

Your better off using subsonic or madsonic for that. Get dsub on android as the client

Just to be clear I am using a web hosting service, so an offshore server. I don't see how subsonic can be installed on it. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Everything I've read describes certain ways to stream from an embedded player on a web page rather than browse the filesystem.
