As someone who worked as a feeelancer and on film sets, as well as in teams: communication is key. But that doesn't mean this communication has to happen in a meeting.

I am not a fan of meetings, but I like a weekly meeting for a project or our department. What I don't like is pointless meetings where things are repeated that are written more concisely in the gitlab issues or in an email everybody should have read.

The point of meetings is to bring all the relevant people onto the same information level and discuss potential issues, however a lot of the more detailed stuff should be consumed beforehand individually.
