I've seen per-mille signs on a couple of indie calculators and in Unicode code-point tables, but that's about it. Never used one.

my first exposure to it is some parameters for linear actuator motion controls, and it is super confusing not only because of permille but some calculations are in milliamps and others are in amps.
