Advice from personal experience as a simple user - you don’t need dual boot. One machine = one system. Run win apps with wine. Win upgrades can and will break your bootloader and make you normal Linux partition unbootable. Multiboot is used by professionals for specific tasks.





This kind of experience is very personal and I guess depends a lot on our hardware - I’m having an opposite of what you’re describing, never had any problems with running and installating software under wine (although I don’t use any windows programs anymore) but had lots of problems with dual booting. I honestly don’t understand anymore why anyone would install windows in general and why does one need two or more OSs installed on a single machine, if I want to tinker with another OS I can run it in a VM or run it from a Live environment from a CD or USB stick. One system is enough to operate a computer and it makes sense to use one that respects our freedom.
