    AFAIK, standing all day isn’t any healthier than sitting all day. No idea about the last panel tho …

      You’re suppose to move around throughout the day. Being sedentary is what makes it unhealthy. Standing in the same place all day is as bad as sitting in the same place all day.

      Offices are bad for our health.

      Pure anecdote, but as someone with a long, shitty back, I definitely noticed a marked improvement in how my back felt when I switched to a standing desk.

      Hybrid desks are where it’s at. As soon as I start to get uncomfortable sitting in up like a meer cat. Then twenty minutes or so later back down I go.

        A Home Assistant standing desk controller exists. I don’t have a standing desk, but if I did I’d have it automatically rotating every half hour.
