Same here. It's a little bloated maybe but the balance of chit-chat vs real work seems to be one that works for us. It's productive and also good social session to start the day. Feels like it's probably been positive for people since we all went 100% remote March 2020. Good team rapport and trust etc are important factors, it's vital no one is "scared" to give honest updates.
