#4I've had a good experience with the Aeron and Mirra 2 chairs by Herman Miller. Currently using both, as I work out of two different offices.
Both are pricey, but IMHO worth it.

#5Herman Miller Aeron at home. Whatever they give me at work.

#6I use a Herman Miller Mirra 2. It's fantastic.

#7Currently I am using a cheapo Office Max chair I bought a few years ago (~$100)
I am looking at replacing it with an Autonomous.ai ErgoChair2 [1] within the next few weeks.
I work from home so buying a $1k+ chair isn't really feasible. For context, I am in my late 20's without major back problems so "cheaping out" is still a reasonable thing to do.

#8Ikea Poang with footstool. Laptop in lap. No desk. Mitigates pretty much all the ergonomics issues I've encountered over years of sitting at computers.
I think it works for me because of how easily I can redistribute my weight, adjust typing position, screen distance and angle, etc. Of course it also works because the high degree of control I have over my work environment. A luxury, no doubt.

#9I have a Herman Miller SAYL chairs and I hate it.
I have a $100 Amazon Basics Office Chair at home and its FAR more comfortable.

#10I've occasionally been using an exercise ball. Best part is stretching on it during breaks.
