Shadowsocks
Created by clowwindy, Shadowsocks is one of the most popular open-source proxy tools around. The idea is simple: encrypt your traffic and let a remote server forward it, so when you visit a site, your own address stays out of the picture.
- The chain: An encrypted Socks5 link carries data to a relay server, which performs the real connection.
- Strong encryption: AES-family and ChaCha20 ciphers shield content from prying eyes and tampering.
- Choice of hosts: Run your own relay or pick from shared public servers.
Using Shadowsocks with FlClash
Shadowsocks concentrates on encryption and forwarding, whereas FlClash takes charge of management and routing:
- Instant import: Point FlClash at a subscription containing SS nodes and the rule engine takes over.
- Extra layers: On top of SS tunnels, FlClash adds multi-protocol support, speed checks, and custom rules.
- User friendly: A graphical UI turns SS configuration into a straightforward task.
All in all, SS owns secure connectivity while FlClash owns efficient management β a combination that covers nearly every proxy use case.
