Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Currently, the plugin encounters issues when encountering IP blocks from Reddit. This can prevent users from accessing the functionality that relies on Reddit data.
Describe the solution you'd like
We propose implementing proxy support within the plugin. This would allow users to specify a proxy address and port in the configuration, enabling the plugin to utilize the proxy for Reddit API requests.
Describe alternatives you've considered
While some users might resort to VPNs to bypass IP blocks, a dedicated proxy solution within the plugin offers a more controlled and user-friendly approach.
Additional context
Ensuring compatibility with ASF's trimmed version to avoid MissingMethodException errors is crucial during development. Additionally, clear documentation on configuring and using proxy settings should be provided for users.
The issue that's linked to this feature request is: https://github.com/maxisoft/ASFFreeGames/issues/75
Benefits
Users with blocked IPs can continue using the plugin without relying on VPNs.
Increased overall plugin reliability and robustness.
