Does such a proxy exist?
Let's say you're in an Internet cafe, you need to look at something confidential over HTTP (without S) and you don't want someone (like the owner of the cafe) to intercept your traffic (including visited addresses). You cannot install a VPN or SSH on a coffee machine, but you can set a proxy in your browser settings. Is there such a proxy, such that a modern browser connects to it using SSL?

so at home (in the office / at the hoster) set yourself a proxy server that suits your requirements, and you will be happy.
It seems to me that you want to go through http without encryption (i.e. the browser will not and should not encrypt data transmitted anywhere, including to a proxy server), so even if you find such a proxy (I'm just not sure of its existence either) then the data to it will go in the clear - They can be intercepted.
It's easier to raise https reverse proxy. The proxy itself will go to a very important server via http, but you will connect to it via ssl.
nginx can.
https proxy will save you. That is, like a bunch of wab-proxy, but via https.
Here is an important moment - when entering from a cafe, you need to check that the certificate has not been substituted. Because mitm-certificate can be in the trust list of the cafe computer => your traffic will be easily decrypted.
Neither keyloggers, screenloggers, CCTV, etc., in general, can be protected with 100% probability from known types of attacks (not to mention unknown ones)
It’s easier for me - RDP on my home machine, looking out, and after encrypted RDP, I go where I need from my home browser

You probably need your own web server with HTTPS configured and a web proxy script installed.
It will look something
like this: www.proxer.ru/
Well, one more very important point - computers in cafes can by no means be considered at least somewhat safe - there may well be keyloggers and programs that take screenshots of the screen with a certain interval. In this case, all your sophistication completely loses its meaning.
