Free HTTP, SOCKS4 and SOCKS5 proxies, re-checked every hour.
Every proxy in this repository was verified minutes ago by monosans/proxy-scraper-checker running on my server. Each one had to fetch a real URL in full to make the list, so proxies that connect and then stall never appear. Response time, exit IP, network owner and city come attached.
No signup, no API key, no rate limit. They are raw files served by GitHub.
| File | Contents |
|---|---|
proxies/all.txt |
every proxy, prefixed with protocol:// |
proxies/http.txt |
HTTP only, bare host:port |
proxies/socks4.txt |
SOCKS4 only, bare host:port |
proxies/socks5.txt |
SOCKS5 only, bare host:port |
proxies.json |
everything, with metadata |
proxies_pretty.json |
the same JSON, indented |
Proxies are sorted fastest first, so the top of each file is the best of what was working at the last update. The commit message for every update lists the per-protocol counts.

}timeout is how long the complete request took, in seconds: connection, request and full response. That is what the fastest-first ordering uses. exit_ip is the address the target site actually saw; compare it with host to spot proxies that forward through somewhere else.
geolocation mirrors the GeoLite2 City record, abbreviated here. Fields the database has no data for are omitted, and names are English only. The tool's README documents the full shape.
These are anonymous proxies collected from public sources. Whoever runs one can see, log and modify everything that passes through it.
So never send credentials, tokens or personal data through a proxy from this list, and stick to HTTPS, which keeps the operator from reading or rewriting the response.
Expect them to die, too. They are free and volatile, and a proxy that worked at the top of the hour may be gone by the next update, so re-fetch the list rather than caching it.
If you need proxies you can actually rely on, use a paid provider.
monosans/proxy-scraper-checker builds the same kind of list from your own sources, checked against your own URL, on your own schedule. It is a single binary for Windows, Linux, macOS and Android.
