I’ve been looking for a webproxy that would work with big websites like YouTube. So far I’ve found only very outdated and abandoned ones. Is there any up-to-date and actually functional webproxy I could host?

Edit: The reason I need this is that there are some locked up Windows computers I can’t install any traditional VPNs on and that are used by non-tech-savvy people.

I can’t pin the comment with the solution so here’s the link

    Thanks! SOCKS5 proxy is a good option, I don’t know why I didn’t think of it from the very beginning…

    My goal is to bypass local censorship on university computers that don’t allow running any executables except those provided by the administrator. And I’m trying to help professors who aren’t particularly tech-savvy, so a webproxy is actually still a better option.

    A browser inside a docker is a very viable solution, however my VPS is super small, so I don’t have resources for that unfortunately.
