I'm running Filezilla Server 0.9.45 beta to manage my server remotely.
After setting it up, I tested connecting to it using the IP 127.0.0.1, and it worked successfully. However, to connect to the server remotely, I port forwarded to port 21, and tried to connect using my computer's IP.

This continues to work locally, but not when connecting remotely... How can I fix this?

An incorrect port number can be a reason for getting the error message, could not connect to server in FileZilla. By default, FileZilla has Active mode connections to transfer the files. In Active Mode, the FTP connections are not firewall-friendly and this may lead to connectivity issues.
While not strictly an error this status message indicates you are trying to connect to a FTP server which does not support TLS. In this case you have to change the connection encryption configuration to Only use plain FTP (insecure).
I just changed the encryption from "Use explicit FTP over TLS if available" to "Only use plain FTP" (insecure) at site manager and it works!

File > Site Manager > Select your site > Transfer Settings > Active
Works for me.
