I agree. It's easy enough rig something up on your own that let's you stand and type.

The nice thing about standing desks is that you can adjust. I like to sit as well and don't stand the whole time.
I would argue that this chair is worth more than a standing desk in regards to health. Although quite pricy as well.

What do you like about that chair?

Your body always a little bit in some movement and your overall posture is probalby better if you can't lean on something. If you use this chair for the first few days, you will definitely have sore muscles :)

you get used to it quite quick and I don't have the feeling that I need to relax my back because of the sitting on this chair.

there are those little stands you can add on top of your desk that can be lifted up to make it a "standing desk". that's what i'm currently using and it serves its purpose just fine, though you'll need to think through organizing your desk a bit more

That's what I had in mind, but I've seen people do all kinds of crazy things.

Get a dual motor standing desk frame from Amazon for $200ish and a table top from IKEA for ~$100. Screw in a power strip to the underside and a cable management tray and you have an amazing desk for under $400
