Help Request: CrowdSec CAPI Connection Blocked – Proxy Support?

Hi everyone! πŸ‘‹ I'm currently running CrowdSec on my server, but it's unable to connect to https://api.crowdsec.net/ due to heavy network censorship and governmental blocks (a lot of CDNs and websites are affected in my region). Because of this, the CAPI communication fails, and CrowdSec can't function as intended. Is there any way to configure CrowdSec to use a proxy (HTTP or SOCKS5) for outgoing requests β€” especially to reach the CrowdSec API? Any workaround, built-in support, or hacky solution is welcome. Appreciate any help or ideas! Thanks in advance
