Limited to localhost only, no ability to change host. Please add this feature.
perfect
Super simple. Just I needed. Maybe it will be good to add ability to change server host (e.g to use proxy on your router), but nothing more should be added.
simple and perfect
Not working on Chrome 87.0.4280.88/Windows 10. Installed, configured, enabled, but not working. Natively there is no 'SOCKS' proxy on Windows, I hoped this extention could help, but no. It cannot.
Flawless. Writing this review during COVID-19 lockdown. My company's VPN is getting hit really hard and anything we can do to stay off of it is helpful. We also keep a host available with ssh exposed publicly (public key auth only). So I use that host as an ssh SOCKS proxy and this extension makes it so much easier. Without it, it's super clunky to turn the proxy on/off as needed as well as getting Chrome configured to push dns over the proxy as well.
Simple to setup and works very well.
will like to use
a direct solution for the single most annoying feature in chrome: changing that god damned proxy setting. i don't have the time to dig through thousands of settings! what do i look like to you? a settings traversing robot with no life of his own? no! i need that proxy changed and i need it changed fast. quick. snap snap. on, off. on, off. thankfully this plugin was invented. now i can calm down and my family also appreciates it when i come home less angry than usual. my pets are coming near me again.
