Hi, I am really struggling to find a good socks5 proxy to use on my Linux machine.
I have found tinyproxy but the version that I get from apt-get does not support HTTPS and it's a normal HTTP proxy, not even socks5.
I can't even find good documentation about squid or other proxy servers, it's such a niche argument.
I don't have such a great knowledge of http and tcp protocols to create one myself so I'm kind of lost.
Thank you!

I think theWebshare proxy is the best and the cheapest proxy I have ever used. It hasUsername/Password
and IP authorization methods for authentication. It also provides direct and backbone connections. And the proxy protocols are HTTPS and SOCK5. And all these features come in $2 for 100 proxies.
In a nutshell:
- Authentication methods: Username/Password and IP Authorization
- Connection Methods: Direct connection and Backbone connection
- Proxy Protocols: HTTP and SOCK5
- Rotating Proxies: Available (can be enabled easily)
- Multiple IP: Yes, you can add multiple IPs to use the proxies.
- Price Range: $2 for 100 proxies
- Satisfaction: I am awesomely satisfied

If you need it to inspect web requests for your development I would suggest investing in a Charles Proxy license, it will worth it.
If you have other needs, like relaying trough VPNs or other stuff please state them, and hopefully a sys-admin will help you with a free solution.
