Without admin privileges, it's not trivial to use nix.

The nvim on my work laptop is old being from Ubuntu 21.10 so I went with Nix (because I dont like Snap). Fairly easy to set up, Nix is even included in Ubuntu repo.

You only have to install it once, and update things like update-alterrnatives or play with $PATH.
