Is standing to use your computer actually healthier? Or should I get an ergonomic chair? (alien.top)

I'm in Indonesia now and my place doesn't have an office chair, just one without a backrest. I was told that was a nono, but when I checked online there is a lot of information on how standing is better for you long term, and I do know people who stand and use the computer.

I care about my health, so I want to know what is the best practice. I can't get another chair on short notice. Do I continue standing for now? I use the computer most of the day.
