I’m currently dual booting on my laptop, but I’ve heard people caution against Linux and Windows on the same drive because a Windows can eat your Linux partition. But that’s all I hear about it, not reasons, causes, etc.

Am I at risk for nuking my Linux partition upon a random boot into my Windows partition? If so, why? How do I ensure that doesn’t happen? What do I need to know?
