I wouldn’t call it “the proper way.” Most of the time, I simply want to
free space on my disk, so I run either, say, ‘guix gc -C500M’ if I’m in
a hurry, or ‘guix gc’. The ‘-d’ switch is really for specific cases.
But as Taylan notes, you should run guix-daemon with --gc-keep-outputs
--gc-keep-derivations to avoid losing the build time dependencies.

Dunno, I admit I’m not as enthusiastic as the other people here. :-)
What would ‘guix gc’ (without any option) do?
Thanks,
