Add http/socks proxy settings #141

Closed border-radius closed 4 years ago

border-radius commented 6 years ago

If it feasible, it can be a killer feature for DDG browser. Chrome and FF for mobile is not supporting proxy settings, but it necessary in many places in the world where ISP and government is looking into your traffic, censoring specific parts of the internet and injecting obscure code into unprotected html pages.

It's also much easier to explain how to setup proxy to nontech people than how to configure VPN on mobile. I got my socks5 proxy-server which proxiyng traffic on my desktop FF and Telegram, but on Android I can only proxy Telegram traffic (app has this feature) and no option to use socks5 proxy on any mobile browser.
