Does the line leave my browser?
No. Parsing and the OS / browser / curl snippets all run in this tab. JoyProxy does not receive the host or the password.

FAQ
About this generator
Why does Windows ignore the password?
Windows system proxy has address and port only. If the line has credentials, use Firefox, the JoyProxy browser extension, curl, or Python — they can send the username.
HTTP or SOCKS?
If the line starts with socks5:// we treat it as SOCKS. Otherwise it is HTTP. Windows, Android, and iPhone system settings are HTTP; SOCKS needs Firefox, an extension, or an app.
