In the meantime, are there any better ways of obtaining derivation outputs other than building yourself? I'd rather not recompile the kernel on my deck again. |

does chaotic-nyx's cachix have binaries for jovian nixos? I didn't get what the link meant. |

With d55977e, pushing to Cachix was replaced with GitHub Actions cache to speed up the CI and make it work in forks. However, it is not possible to use GitHub cache outside CI.
Some packages, like the kernel, take a substantial amount of time to compile and is therefore kinda of a waste that the artifacts already built by the CI cannot be downloaded.
The changes proposed here re-introduce the Cachix action, only for commits in the default branch and not in forks.
