Honestly, I’ve tried both free vs paid residential proxy options, and the difference is night and day. Free ones are tempting, but they’re sooo slow and unreliable. Like, half the time they don’t even work when you need them.
Paid ones? Totally worth it if you’re doing anything beyond casual browsing. I use Smartproxy, and it’s been solid—good speeds, no random disconnects, and way better security.
If you’re just testing stuff, maybe try a free one first, but don’t expect much. For anything serious, go paid.
