posted 6 years agoYou do not have to pay. You can get proxy servers from many free sources, but since they are free, they are not very reliable and they are generally very slow. I do not provide free proxy lists because they change all the time and their quality is poor.
You can buy proxy servers from many places, not just me, and use them with the FoxyProxy add-on. At the moment, import works with FoxyProxy servers and previous versions of FoxyProxy, but I am working with other proxy vendors to get them added to an import list. However, it requires their cooperation to get it right. Not all vendors respond to me.
Regarding VPN: all firefox add-ons that are called "VPN" use proxy servers behind the scenes. It is just a marketing choice to call it VPN instead of proxy.
Good luck!

- Rated 3 out of 5by daydreaming, 23 days agoFor almost a year now, FoxyProxy hasn’t been functioning properly. The extension keeps staying connected to the very first city that was selected during the initial setup. Even when changing the location in the settings, it still remains stuck on that original city.
The developers seriously need to investigate this issue. Me and several other users have been experiencing the same problem, and the only temporary fix seems to be uninstalling and reinstalling the extension completely.Developer response
posted 22 days agoI would love to help. I use FoxyProxy myself every day and if I saw this problem, I'd fix it. Since there are so many different settings, it's possible we are using it differently and that is why I have not seen the problem you describe. This is the wrong place to debug and solve the problem. Could you please email me at help@getfoxyproxy.org? - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18586574, a month ago

- Rated 4 out of 5by Lulu5239, 6 months agoWorks and the log feature is useful, but there is a chance that this slows down my phone's performance when watching videos, even without any proxy selected. I now disable this extension when not actually using it.
