How to easily, quickly and temporarily (without playing around with mount and fstab) mount a filesystem on Linux

1. Install sshfs

   apt (Ubuntu / Debian / Mint)

   sudo apt update -y
   sudo apt upgrade -y
   
   sudo apt install sshfs -y

   dnf (Fedora / CentOS / Red Hat Enterprise Linux)

   sudo dnf check-update
   sudo dnf upgrade -y
   
   sudo dnf install sshfs -y

   pacman (Arch)

   yes | sudo pacman -Syu sshfs

2. Create a mount point

sudo mkdir /mnt/<folder_name>/

3. Mount the remote filesystem

sudo sshfs <remote_user>@<host>:<path> /mnt/<folder_name>/

* To unmount, simply run: sudo umount /mnt<folder_name>/
