I’m with you on the skepticism. Shopify Socks5 sounds fancy, but it’s not a must-have for every store. I tried it for a couple of weeks and didn’t see any major improvements. My store’s already on a fast host, and I use Cloudflare for security, so maybe that’s why?
If you’re looking for alternatives, I’d suggest checking out Imperva or Akamai. They’re more robust and offer better protection against DDoS attacks and bots. Shopify Socks5 is good, but it’s not the only option out there.
