    I'm low-key considering buying a car seat instead of a new office chair. I rather build a platform for the car seat than waste yet again over 200 bucks for a sub-par "ergonomic" office chair with worse butt comfort. I just looked-up car seats in my local listings and a whole set of two front seats and the backseat row can be bought for 100.

      @adiwan My high school girlfriend's dad did exactly that for their family's computer chairs, it can actually work out *incredibly* well, totally a good project idea. I've even been thinking about it as my desk chair starts wearing out....

        @scribus I think we live on a planet similar to Frogstar from The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy https://hitchhikers.fandom.com/wiki/Frogstar_World_B Instead of shoes it's office chairs. I've never had an office chair that was of sufficient quality. Even my current one had the problem that its cushioning was almost nonexistent after half a year.
        Before I buy a car seat I try to repair the cushions by stuffing a gel or silicone pillow into, anything that survives long butt-to-cushion interactions. I already have a silicone pillow that I put on top but it tends to slide off more times I can tolerate.
