BTW, I use a wonderful tool called goofys that lets you mount S3 buckets as local volumes. There are a number of constraints (can open for read, or write a file once) but it works well for a wide range of legacy applications.

You may be interested in the 'rclone' tool which does all of these things, and more, with all of the cloud providers:

You might want to highlight that rclone has FUSE support – you have to scroll down the page a bit to learn that your comment wasn't comparing unlike things:

Does it work better than goofys?
