Definitely don't go with free proxies, they are mostly used for spam and blacklisted.

If you solid and affordable proxy you can get some at ChangeMyIP, or if you are looking for residential IP, you can get it at PacketStream.

I tested quite good number of proxies providers for the project I am building automatio.co, which is a no-code web automation tool.

I agree. No free proxies for a real-world case, but for testing without spending any money they might work (from time to time).
I'm preparing a comparison for different kind of proxies right now, and the differences in success rates are huge.
