> Is there a way to correctly change /nix to /home/user/nix?
Yes, but you will no longer be able to binary packages !

You can (bind) mount something to /nix at boot probably ?
Does this still work since nix creates chroots with private mounts or
such under some conditions.

Also see nix-store --otimise
