@victorxstc I really wouldn't expect Opera or any Chromium based browser to change it.

@burnout426 thanks; it seems promising should learn how to use it and test it though.

@leocg don't see why it is costly. It seems straightforward and easy to implement.

@victorxstc Everything has a cost. The cost to create the code, the cost to keep that code, etc.

@burnout426 I was surprised to see that I had previously installed Proxy SwitchyOmega on my Vivaldi, but had disabled it and forgotten about it (for unknown reasons. Perhaps it didn't work fine before, or Vivaldi didn't grant it its needed permissions to work at that time).
Anyways, I tested it on Opera, Vivaldi, Edge, and Firefox. It worked like a charm in all of them, though it had a few minor bugs, which I reported here: https://github.com/FelisCatus/SwitchyOmega/issues/2437

@leocg Sure everything has a cost, but cost alone is never considered; the thing to always consider is the cost-to-benefit ratio.
Anyways, with this awesome add-on, there is no need to implement this feature anymore.

@victorxstc Yes, that's about the cost/benefits thing I was talking about.

Apparently these are other good proxy switchers:
Oxylabs – 🏆 Winner! Bright Data Smartproxy Proxy Changer FoxyProxy Proxy SwitchyOmega Proxy Switcher and Manager BP Proxy Switcher Proxy SwitchySharp
... others...
Should test and compare them, but welcome any commendation.
