Any recommendations for a good cheap brand of office chair that doesn't scream either "I PLAY VIDEO GAMES AT MY COMPUTER" or "I FILL OUT EXCEL SHEETS FOR A LIVING"? (hexbear.net)

I had an opportunity to "borrow" a fancy office chair in 2020 (without record of it) and I regret not snagging it lol. Would have had the "down in the Excel mill" look, but would have been free and more comfy than my current one.

Those excel nerds do not fuck around when it comes to ergonomics.

Wish they'd stop fucking around when it comes to making a chair that looks normal outside of an office setting though

But... But... How else will I know I'm in an aggressively soulless surrealist hellscape!?

yeah I've made the same mistake
I just don't want to waste money on an ugly chair, and I really want a nice one since my workspace is also my dining-space and kitchen
