What's the Best Way to Do a Proxy Download Safely and Quickly? or Is There a Reliable Method for Prox

Proxies are hit or miss, but here’s my hack: use a VPN with SOCKS5 support.

Windscribe’s got a decent free tier, and their SOCKS5 proxy is faster than most freebies. Just set it up in your download client and you’re good.

Also, avoid public proxy lists—those IPs are burned out. Stick to private or paid options for proxy download.
