FoxyProxy Proxy Integration
What is FoxyProxy?
FoxyProxy is a powerful tool for Chrome and Firefox that makes it easy to manage and switch between proxy servers. Unlike other plugins, it uses the Chrome Proxy API and offers a one-click switch option.
Why use FoxyProxy?
FoxyProxy offers automatic switching based on website addresses, efficient event handling for changes, and compatibility with online rule lists. For those wanting a simpler experience, FoxyProxy Basic is available with fewer settings.
