my back hurts af....
The problem is your posture. Sit upright.
I agree with this. I’m 6’ tall with really long legs so I use a cheap drafting table (adjustable height) and a lab chair (higher than a normal chair) and then I put books under the monitors so I am looking straight at them. And, make sure you get up and stretch at least every two hours.
If all else fails, get a back brace that won’t let you slouch.

In the meantime, get some CBD oil. I get awful neck pain when I sit funny or work out wrong and it really helps. I got a lotion and a salve from Imbue Botanicals and so far both have been good 😊

I just bought a Serta chair from Office Depot. Highly recommend

Ordered Staples Hyken Chair which went on sale this morning. Slickdeal community has good reviews on this one
Sit on the floor with the back against the wall... it’s the best thing for your back. It will help with posture too.
It’s free... you’re welcome!
You have to stand up and walk around every 20-25 minutes for blood circulation within the legs
My back hurts too so I just work from my bed. I just put 6 books under my laptop and it's perfect. Whenever I sit at my desk for meetings for more than 20 minutes it starts hurting. If I sit upright my shoulders hurt so that doesn't really help either. One way or another it's really uncomfortable.
I got a used Herman Miller Aeron in Jan of 2018 (looked brand new) - bought it from seatingmind.com. Still works great and will hold up for decades. I’ve been through many cheap big box office supply store chairs (less then $300) and they just aren’t as comfortable nor do they hold up.

Anything from Madison Seating. They have Aeron Herman Miller chairs on sale for $500 vs the original price ($1000). But you can find other high quality ergonomic chairs there as well
Yeah I did order through them. Yeah idk where my order is. I placed it on the 10th :/
Bought Lazboy Manager Chair and Height adjustable desk from Costco. Works great !
Steelcase
I’ve read a lot of people are getting this one. There’s a 10% discount out there right now but looks like shipping is pretty delayed. https://www.autonomous.ai/office-chairs/ergonomic-chair?option20=50
