SmartProxy

SmartProxy is a smart automatic proxy switcher that will automatically enable/disable proxy for the sites you visit, based on customizable rules.

SmartProxy: The Premier Automatic Proxy Switcher Add-On on Firefox

SmartProxy is a versatile Firefox extension that employs patterns to automatically define rules to proxify your web experience. It intelligently detects when to enable or disable proxy as per visited websites. Its inspiration draws from AutoProxy and AutoProxy-ng but stands as a superior solution written from scratch using WebExtensions, offering more functionality. It perfectly blends user-friendly features with advanced options such as switching between many proxy servers, one-click proxy list addition, real-time viewing of site items and requests, support for Proxy API through subscriptions, and the ability to backup and restore settings.

Since my ZeroOmega decides to stop working for no reason and reinstall extension & firefox does nothing, this is my savior. As a Chinese user I cannot live without browser proxy extension. also this one have basically full support for all SwithyOmega features, I'm happy and thankful.

Никаких прокси-серверов тут нет. А проги для своих прокси есть и попроще + они все всегда бесплатны.
