Shadowsocks is a free and open-source tool developed by Chinese programmer clowwindy in 2012. It's widely used in mainland China, with a global community focused on providing reliable and secure code support. This privacy tool connects you to an encrypted third-party socks5 proxy designed for protecting your internet traffic, similar to SSH tunnels but with the added benefit of handling UDP traffic.
Shadowsocks offers a fast and flexible connection using advanced techniques such as asynchronous I/O and event-driven programming. It features industry-level encryption algorithms while also allowing for custom ones. Deploying package managers like pip, aur, or fresh is easy with this tool.
Additional features include HTTP proxy support, server auto-switching based on load balance, high availability selection of the best servers, and UDP relay. To use Shadowsocks with a plugin, simply input the plugin's relative or absolute path on the Edit Servers form.
Remember that this software requires Microsoft .NET Framework 4.7.2 or higher, as well as Microsoft Visual C++ 2015 Redistributable for optimal performance. Shadowsocks excels at protecting your internet traffic with its ultra-fast connection and flexible encryption support, making it a solid choice for privacy and security needs in package management systems.
