Quality-of-life advice. Got an office chair you spend a lot of time in? Turns out that the wheels/casters on office chairs are generally replaceable. And yours are quite likely kinda sticky and bumpy and worn.

So, you can make your daily experience so much smooooooother by putting on new/better casters. They’re pretty cheap.
