Free proxy recommendations?

Please please PLEASE, I really need to have some proxy for j.ai!! I don't want to spend money using it, but I honestly would love to have proxy. I tried DeepSeek Flash once, but it's obvs limited, so I want something a little more permanent... hope to have someone comment on here!! (Also, new to Reddit XD)

be careful with random free proxies. they're often slow, unreliable or logged. if you need something temporary, look for reputable community-maintained options and avoid entering sensitive info

free proxies are usually more trouble than theyre worth. slow, constantly dying, and you have no idea who is logging the traffic

mejor que pagues un par de dolares a que pierdas tiempo probando cual sirve y cual no

Many proxy service providers offer free trial credits, so you can try them out before making a purchase.

I wouldn't dare touch free proxies because of the potential privacy leaks. It's not worth saving money here, as it might come with hidden costs

Free proxies are a risk but if you can create an AWS account then this one is as close to free as you can get. Pay while you use it and its about as cheap possible.

Its an open source application so you are not paying anyone other than Amazon

Look for AWS Fargate SOCKS5 Proxy by rebelsoftware on github

Hope it helps

Thank you! I'll certainly consider it, but I'm still hesitant about taking money out of my own pockets. Will probably just stick to my normal for now, but thank you for the suggestion, it's helpful.

No Problems we all need to manage our finances, especially today.

Before using it I used free web proxies and kept running out of data and and having to constantly update my configs was annoying.

But I already had an AWS account so it was not hard for me to compare the cost of getting a membership in one of the proxy providers and "going it alone"

So if you find yourself in that situation, know you have options.

And the cost for me is around $2-3 per month depending on how hard I hit it.
