???+ info You can also have a list of proxies that are rotated while searching stores. Proxies can be read from a file named STORENAME.proxies in the format of socks5://username:password@ip; one per line. In this case, there is no need to use the PROXY_* environments.

???+ tip - You can also have a list of proxies that are rotated while searching stores. Proxies can be read from a file named STORENAME.proxies in the format of socks5://username:password@ip; one per line. - Data usage is known to be high. This is expected as the program scrapes many websites in parallel 24/7. To help reduce this, use LOW_BANDWIDTH="true". We are looking into other solutions as well, but is low priority.
