Proxy Flosser

To enable proxies in your MacBook, you need to go to "System Preferences" (from the "Apple" menu), then open "Network", then - specify the type of connection you are using. Then select "Advanced Settings" (can be named as "Advanced"), then click on "Proxy". And then - either set the parameters manually, or specify a configuration file.

It refers to a proxy that changes its IP address according to a set algorithm. This is done to minimize the risk of the proxy being recognized by web applications and to better ensure privacy.

If you can't proxy requests in Scrapy:

- Verify correct proxy configuration in Scrapy settings.
- Confirm proxy functionality with external tools.
- Check for typos or errors in your code and settings.
- Ensure proxy authentication details are correct.
- Test with a direct internet connection to isolate the issue.
- Check for IP blocking by the target website.
- Confirm proper configuration of the HttpProxyMiddleware.
- Use Scrapy logging to inspect requests and responses.
- Ensure your proxy supports HTTPS if needed.
- Test with a single, static proxy for simplicity.
- Keep Scrapy and dependencies up to date.
- Consider using middleware libraries like scrapy-rotating-proxies.

This is a proxy server integrated into the app to redirect traffic. It allows you to protect yourself from being tracked or to use the program where it is blocked. For example, at one time, users used a proxy server to bypass Telegram blocking.

Go to the settings (the icon in the form of three dots) and open the section "Settings". In the tab at the very bottom, click on "Advanced settings". Click on "Open proxy settings for computer" and in the window that appears, click on "Network settings". Find the line "Automatic detection of parameters", uncheck it, and then, in the section "Proxy", activate the option "Use a proxy server". Enter the proxy host and port in the appropriate fields, and then click "Apply".
