The big difference between an https proxy and a VPN is scope. A VPN encrypts *all* your traffic, while an https proxy only handles web traffic (HTTP/HTTPS).
So if you’re just browsing, it’s solid. But if you’re using other apps, they might leak your real IP.
Pro tip: Use Firefox with its built-in HTTPS-only mode + a proxy for extra security. Works like a charm for me.
