Can you use Socks5 and HTTP proxies together?

[@oxylabs]

Hi, yes, it's possible :) But the specific setup depends on your tools or software. Oxylabs provides SOCKS5 and HTTPS proxies, but chaining them requires a proxy client or script that supports this configuration, like Proxifier, proxychains, or custom programming using libraries like requests with PySocks.

@@oxylabsand what about the mobile proxies, is that a socks5, will it work on apps?

[@oxylabs]

Our Mobile Proxies support HTTP, HTTPS, and SOCKS5 protocols. You can learn more about using them here: developers.oxylabs.io/proxies/mobile-proxies/protocols

can a HTTP proxy provider read my files when i upload them to a website use HTTPs like Onedrive ? help me please !!!!

[@oxylabs]

HTTPS provides a secure and encrypted connection, ensuring that the data exchanged between your browser and the website remains private and protected from third-party eavesdropping.

OSRS botters, you're looking for a SOCKs proxy ;)

[@oxylabs]

SOCKS proxies are made for traffic-heavy scraping, although we recommend double-checking the service/website's legal terms before scraping.

This is simply bad content that should be avoided if you want to understand what socks are: instead of explaining the concept, I need to constantly fracture my attention to catch all the promos/ads the presenter thinks are relevant throughout the video.
