Free SOCKS5 Proxy List
SOCKS5 relays TCP and UDP, supports IPv6 and authentication, and can resolve hostnames on the proxy side. If your client supports it, it is the best default.

curl -s https://proxyspace.pro/socks5.txtAbout this list
Every 20 minutes ProxySpace collects SOCKS5 proxies from 21 sources, keeps only well-formed ip:port lines, removes duplicates and replaces /socks5.txt with the result. The proxies are not tested by us: many will be dead or slow by the time you use them. Check them before you rely on them, for example against the proxy judge.
Good for
- Any TCP protocol, not just the web
- UDP traffic such as DNS or games
- Remote DNS so lookups do not leak locally
Not for
Sending credentials through unknown public servers: SOCKS5 does not encrypt anything by itself.
Usage
# curl, DNS resolved by the proxy
curl --socks5-hostname IP:PORT https://example.com/
# Python (pip install requests[socks]); socks5h = remote DNS
import requests
requests.get("https://example.com/", proxies={"https": "socks5h://IP:PORT"}, timeout=10)
