BERLIN: Cat ears, a chicken on your head and a teddy bear around your neck: The post-pandemic work culture of online meetings for remote workers is highly dependent on laughs, and testimony to this is Microsoft's latest addition to Teams chat: Snapchat filters.

Microsoft has announced that the Teams messenger service, which is mainly used in a professional context, is getting more than 20 of Snapchat's most popular face filters in April.
