Would like the option of choosing proxy location for Tor windows

I almost never use Tor windows in Brave because, invariably, the proxy I end up with is slow to the point of being frustrating at best, useless at worst.

I would love to be able to choose a region or regions for my proxy connections, rather than taking luck of the draw and winding up in Iran, as I did today. (And landing on Iran brings its own problem.)

Short of this, I’d like a “simple proxy” option, like what Epic Browser does. They have only a few proxies, all in the USA (I think), but it gets the job done of hiding my IP without losing much speed.

There may be times I’d like to appear to be browsing from some random Middle Eastern country. But most of the time, I just want to not be “at home.”

I’ve had my fair share of those moments with Tor windows in Brave.

It’s frustrating when you’re trying to surf the web incognito, and you end up with a sluggish proxy or land in a location you didn’t expect.Having the ability to pick the proxy location would be a game-changer. It’s like playing a game of chance every time you fire up the browser, not knowing if you’ll hit the jackpot with a fast connection or get stuck in a digital traffic jam.I’ve been doing some digging myself, and one option I’ve come across is using mobile proxies They offer more control over your browsing experience and could be just the solution you’re looking for.
