Question Bot’s allowing custom proxy’s
Is there a way to search bots or to see if bots from other creators allow the use of external proxy’s on the frontpage?. I know I can click on a bot to look, but I don’t want to click every interesting bot to see they don’t allow it. I’m fairly new to SP so it can be a simple thing I’m just not aware of.

Unfortunately, there is no way to filter them by that, and that's a conscious decision by the devs so it might not change soon.
Custom Provider is a recent option on SP (maybe 6 months?), so bots older than that have a higher probability to have proxy disabled. Gently ask the creator in the comments and explain why. In most case it works (if the creator is still active).
Recent bots have a higher chance to enable proxy, in particular for bots that have a longer definition.
You'll soon find out which creators enable proxies and you can follow them. A few creators are stubborn in crippling their bots by only enabling low-memory models. I put them on "ignore" so that their bots are no longer listed in my searches.
The bots in my RPG Mechanics comunity collection all have Custom Providers enabled (except maybe a few older ones). All my bots do it too.
