### 3/5 — No Option to import from Clipboard

### 5/5 — Brilliant work

*2019-03-24, version 1.2*

界面友好，干净大方，字体也选择的很好！

不过还是有个小缺陷，在ip编辑页面，编辑和删除是需要滑动来点击按钮的，不过提示不足，以至于我找了很久编辑的按钮都找不到！建议添加一个小图标😃

### 5/5 — Proxy by Shadow Socks Technology

*2024-05-19, version 2.1*

I meant to say that this was one of the easiest proxy setup I’ve ever had to deal with I strongly recommend it and kudos to my friend Chuck, who clued us into this. We have implemented it in our system for testing and will probably add this to our Ray of services that we provide to our manage service client as well as internally.
I do recommend having this set up on a separate server and not stack. However, we are doing both stacking it as well as having on a dedicated server and instance and it seems to be handling the traffic without any problems.
Respectfully,
User
