minus-squareTurbo@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up4·edit-25 months agoI have not had an issue in… 9 years? Though I use separate physical drives which might help. I wouldn’t let that scare people away Edit: I’m also using rEFInd Boot Manager. I have about 5 operating systems that I can boot into (good way to try various Linux distros)
minus-squareAnUnusualRelic@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·5 months agoSame here. That’s pretty much a myth. I also have a couple laptops that still have a small windows partition and never had any issues. That happened ages ago and gets blindly parroted to this day. I’m fairly convinced it’s the same with the nVidia stories.
