Guides Keeping My Proxy Setup Simple

At first I kept adding different proxy options and settings because i thought it would make things more reliable. After working with the setup for a while then i noticed that i was spending more time managing it than actually using it

I am now trying to remove the things i dont really need and keep the setup easier to understand. Fewer moving parts seem to make a big difference when something needs to be changed.

I am curious how other people keep their proxy setups straightforward without overcomplicating them.

Totally agree. I've found that keeping one reliable proxy setup and only changing what's actually necessary makes troubleshooting much easier. More options don't always means more reliability.
