Thanks you.
Haven't used myself but if you mean use as a forward proxy, you can do that with Caddy web server and the http.forwardproxy plugin https://caddyserver.com/docs/http.forwardproxy
The SSH SOCKS server is terrible at handling multiple requests in parallel, that is if you visit some website which loads resources from multiple domains (maybe including advertising), if one of those loads slowly or has issues, the entire site will likely stop loading, and even including anything you try to open at the same time in other tabs of the same browser.
I migrated from Squid to the srelay SOCKS proxy, that one works well in such situations. But of course use it over a VPN.
3proxy (https://3proxy.ru/ or https://github.com/z3APA3A/3proxy) is very lightweight and easy to configure
