yeah good residential proxies from the right country usually fix that

There are a few ways to go about it, and yeah proxies can definitely solve the problem in a lot of those cases. Of course, the IP is only one avenue for detecting location, so you can't necessarily rely on the proxy alone.
Depending on the site and what you're trying to access, you may also need to consider things like session isolation, browser configuration, cookies and other location signals. Basically, the proxy handles the IP side of things, but whether that's enough depends heavily on the platform and how sophisticated its geo-detection is.

Why don’t you trust VPNs? I use a VPN myself most of the time and haven’t had any issues with it.

Whereas geo-blocking is concerned, if it’s normal then a reliable VPN or residential proxy would do the trick, but there may be instances where the website checks DNS, cookies, time zone, or even reputation. In case of legitimate access to the website, I’d recommend a steady IP matching the target region.

even if I am sure a virtual private network would suffice for ordinary browsing, proxies work best in case of need for several location for several browser or application however, there are web sites which go beyond IP.

VPNs and Proxies. Do not go for a free tier VPN as most of the IPs they provide are recycled and might not help you much. For Proxies, I would recommend reputable residential proxies

buying a specific region ip
Yes, they do. VPNs are ussually blocked at most major sites now. I live in RU so I use voidmob dedicated proxy with vless xray on to bypass firewall restrictions, same applies for CN. You need good proxy with vless. But if you are in unrestricted locations - all proxies will do. It also depends on context and what kind of websites you want to access and from where.
