Do you use nix run often? (lemmy.world)

This may be an unusual thing but I realised that use nix run a lot instead of putting the package in my nixos configuration. It's often on packages I run at most once every 3 days

Am I the only one that does that?

I use comma very frequently. I have fast enough Internet that download time doesn't really matter for most things, so it takes a lot for me to actually promote it to a system package
