Woa, is that still a thing? You mean like SOCKS5 stuff that you have to manually configure in every application that uses the internet?
I mean maybe I'm just living under a rock but I feel like that's a rather niche situation you got there.

Every big company in the world uses a network proxy. LM Studio, as far as I can tell, cannot be configured to work behind such proxies.

It's becoming more rare, now.
A lot of the universal truths about corporate networks from the early 2000s are no longer true today. Some companies are stuck in their ways though.
The overlap between companies that require someone to use a network proxy and companies that have GPU-equipped machines with enough RAM for LLMs and and that allow people to download and run executables of their choosing has to be small.
Woa TIL. I thought that was somehow long solved at the OS level or with VPNs or something like that (no idea exactly how, I'm sure just I'm misunderstanding something basic).
Makes it rather weird that LM Studio doesn't support it given how their target market, or well at least for their paid products, is very enterprisey.
Every big company? YMMV, but I'd say about 20-40% do.
If you're on Linux you can probably use proxychains.
