Join Teams work meetings from Microsoft Teams (free) and vice versa

Microsoft Teams (Free) users can currently join Teams for work (or school) meetings only as guests, which requires them to use a browser and results in a sub-optimal experience. The new feature rolling out will allow these users to join Teams for work (or school) meetings in one click, without being redirected to the browser or asked to fill in their name/surname. They will also be able to continue collaborating with the meeting organizer and other participants via meeting chat after the meeting.  The feature will work in the opposite way as well, so Teams for work (or school) will just as easily be able to join meetings hosted by a Teams Free user with one click. This is associated with Roadmap ID: 167326

One more personalization feature for OneDrive on the way

One of the new features in OneDrive/SharePoint is the capability to set specific colours to the folders. Not only a way to personalize the look and feel, but possibly a way to visually organize content? All part of a bigger "personalization" journey for OneDrive: Experience the New OneDrive 

This in addition to previously mentioned "find file by contact" or "find by meeting". Features I already have in my OneDrive, and already using quite actively.

The feature should be rolling out by the time this post is published, but it can take some time to land in all tenants. (PS: To set color on an old folder, rename it)
