Can't this be accomplished by people using your company's messaging system (hopefully not teams). You shouldn't have to have meetings to force collaboration.
I am all for being up to date with what your team is doing, but there is no way that every member of the team gives a meaningful update in every standup.
It really depends on what is the size of the team, which according to many should not be more than 6 or 7 people. And one core point is not everyone should be forced to say "something", one should speak if they have anything relevant to add.
I've had many meetings where it's just opening the board, asking everyone if everything looks good or anything blocked, everyone says it seems good and the meeting is ended in 2 minutes.
