Shadowsocks-Qt5 is a native cross-platform GUI client for the Shadowsocks proxy protocol, written in C++ with Qt 5. It supports multiple server profiles, traffic statistics, and server latency testing, but the project is no longer maintained.
Use cases
- connect to a shadowsocks proxy with a desktop gui
- manage multiple shadowsocks server profiles
- test shadowsocks server latency
- view proxy traffic statistics
- bypass internet censorship on linux or windows
When to choose
- you need a native Qt-based shadowsocks client on Linux or Windows
- you want a lightweight GUI with profile management and lag testing
- you are pinned to an older system where this client still works
When to avoid
- you need an actively maintained client with current security fixes
- you need support for modern protocols like shadowsocks-2022 or v2ray
- you want a client for mobile platforms
