I am getting a little lazy and am starting to sit down more again. Standing the whole day is also pretty hard on my knees. But it's nice to be able to mix it up.

In general I am getting more and more envious of people who have a job that allows them to move around a lot. Being in one place the whole day just plain sucks, be it sitting or standing.

the answer for me is to recline when working... and put that energy into a proper workout, which also means you can workout in a way that doesn't impact your knees.

To me it's about changing position. Sitting, standing, treadmill, reclining or whatever. It's all causing problems if you do any of these for 8 hours straight.
