Hey, thanks for sharing! I’ve been struggling with linux curl proxy setups for a while, and your post cleared up a lot. One thing I’d add is that if you’re using a SOCKS proxy, the syntax changes a bit:
```bash
curl --socks5 proxyIP:port https://example.com
```
Also, if you’re debugging, the `-v` flag is a lifesaver. It shows the entire request/response cycle, including proxy handshakes.
```bash
curl --socks5 proxyIP:port https://example.com
