Comment on An actually functional webproxy to self-host

These proxying websites are running full browser instances in the background. It’s the only way to guarantee all the traffic is routed through it.

No, Socks5 does not work for this usecase. You don’t get permissions to run it locally via crostini and the settings are locked in the chromebook settings. In addition to this, it is too easy to fingerprint, and some of the more aggressive setups will catch it and block it. For example, my high school would autodetect wireguard and then kick you off of the network for 10 minutes if you attempted to connect.
