Python requests module, proxies are not being used

Hi guys I have an issue when using proxies in python (requests module version 2.28.1). It seems like my proxies are not being used at all, although I pass them as arguments.

Here is my function to get proxies and my quick test to check IP:

import requests
from random import randint

def getProxies():
    try:
        with open("proxies.txt", "r") as proxyLoader:
            # With proxies
            proxyDetails = proxyLoader.read().splitlines()
            proxyParts = proxyDetails[randint(0, len(proxyDetails) - 1)]

            if '.' not in proxyParts:
                return {"http": None, 'https': None}
            else:
               proxyParts = proxyParts.split(":")

            if len(proxyParts) == 4:
                ip, port, user, passw = proxyParts[0], proxyParts[1], proxyParts[2], proxyParts[3]
                
                formatedProxy = {
                    "http": "http://{}:{}@{}:{}".format(user, passw, ip, port)
                }
            elif len(proxyParts) == 2:
                ip, port = proxyParts[0], proxyParts[1]
                
                formatedProxy = {
                    "http": "http://{}:{}".format(ip, port)
                }
                
            else:
                formatedProxy = {
                    "http": None,
                    "https": None
                }
                
            return formatedProxy
    except (IndexError, ValueError):
        # No proxies
        return {"http": None, 'https': None}

proxies = getProxies()

r = requests.get('https://api.myip.com', proxies=proxies)
print(r.text, proxies)

All I get back is my local ip (which means proxies are not used). I am wondering if this issue is from my code or if it could be coming from another python package as I was using proxies on many scripts since over 2/3 years. I would love to get your help please.

I have also tried using the format like that for proxies:

{
"http": "http://{}:{}@{}:{}".format(user, passw, ip, port),
"https": "https://{}:{}@{}:{}".format(user, passw, ip, port)
}

All I get is that error :"requests.exceptions.ProxyError: HTTPSConnectionPool(host='api.myip.com', port=443): Max retries exceeded with url: / (Caused by ProxyError('Your proxy appears to only use HTTP and not HTTPS, try changing your proxy URL to be HTTP. See: https://urllib3.readthedocs.io/en/1.26.x/advanced-usage.html#https-proxy-error-http-proxy', SSLError(SSLError(1, '[SSL: WRONG_VERSION_NUMBER] wrong version number (_ssl.c:1131)'))))"

Where and how is this Laravel kernel constructor called? [closed]

Where and how is this Laravel kernel constructor called? public fucntion __construct(Application $app, $Router $roouter) { } I have read the documentation and some online tutorial but I can find any clear explanation. I am learning Laravel and I am wondering where does this kernel constructor receives its arguments from. "POSTMOTERM" CLARIFICATION: Here is more clarity.I have checked the boostrap/app.php and it is only used for boostrapping the interfaces into the container class. What is not clear to me is where and how the Kernel class is instatiated and the arguments passed to the object calling the constructor.Something similar to; obj = new kernel(arg1,arg2) or, is the framework using some magic functions somewhere? Special gratitude to those who burn their eyeballs and brain cells on this trivia before it goes into a full blown menopause alias "MARKED AS DUPLICATE". To some of the itchy-finger keyboard warriors, a.k.a The mods,because I believe in th...
