I am behind a corporate proxy, is that the root cause?
Edit :- Yep, that is the root cause. I switched to a hotspot and it is working fine now. But the weird thing is if I launch the firefox from the runtime dir, its settings say use system proxy as well. Maybe we override it during launch?

This request is made by a custom native program which probably ignores system proxies. I'm not sure if there's a way to automatically set it up.

I now checked how reqwest (Rust HTTP client that this program uses) handles proxies and it seems it already uses a system proxy if it exists. It gets proxies from the environment variable HTTP_PROXY for HTTP connections and HTTPS_PROXY for HTTPS. And on Windows, it also tries to get a proxy from the registry (HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings -> ProxyEnable and ProxyServer).

However, SOCKS proxies are not enabled right now, so maybe that's why it doesn't work for you. I will try to enable them in the next release.
