reverse chairs genuinely sounds like a good idea, not only would it prevent the terrible leaned-back posture but it would also be way easier to mount and dismount when you're sitting at a table, since there's no backrest in the way!

Yeah! No scraping or moving the chair, just kneel in kneel out. I wonder if there are any modern chair equivalents of this

I found this thing on Amazon. In the video they show them using it backwards a couple of times.

my neighbors had one of your wtf links when i was like 5-12. it wasn't as bad as you'd think. not as restful as you'd think either.

As a taller person, I could see myself rocking a little too far and toppling over with my feet trapped in behind the lower bar. It's an interesting design though this version looks really rickety and like it's made out of cheap plywood.

The Håg Capisco one looks decent for backwards sitting, but yeah no chin rest
