Personally I'd like a stand-up where it's ok not to have anything to say, like yeah, WIP, no problems, no blockers (except being here talking about it instead of doing it..!) etc.

Fully agree I would prefer it later. Not just 20min, I typically start ~1h before ours anyway, but it hangs over me all that time. I'd like to spend most of the day working on something and then stand-up in the afternoon, I'd be more likely to have an issue someone could help me with, or otherwise on my mind to discuss.

Yeah having standup in the afternoon is great. At my last company I worked with Americans from the EU. My standup was at ~4pm. My "last day's work" was still fresh and still had ~2 hours to resolve blockers.
