My workplace has a strict firewall blocking some sites I need. Can a proxy help, and what’s a good one?

Having trouble accessing certain sites at work, huh? Yep, a proxy can definitely help bypass firewalls! I used to use a free web proxy site – just Googled "free web proxy" and tried a few until I found one that worked. It wasn't perfect (a bit slow), but it got me through. Has anyone else found a good proxy solution? I know some are into using VPNs for more reliable access, but that might get me in trouble. Anyway, back to Basket Random for now!
Proxies can bypass firewalls by routing your traffic through another server. IPv4 proxies are a solid choice for their compatibility. SpaceProxy’s ipv4 proxy https://spaceproxy.net/en/proxy-ipv4/ has worked for me in similar situations. Be mindful of workplace policies to avoid any violations.
