How do y'all organize your DM notes? (self.rpg)

I keep all of what happened in one journal, and everything else on the computer. All the maps, the schedules, and the character sheets using a gurps character sheet program (forgot what its called), because I run it through discord using a text format. I hardly plan anything besides what's in my head.

Ive been trying to use different ways to plan besides just pure vibes. like using joplin, or some wiki format or even trying to do use a mindmap? But alas most of what I do is simulating what I believe would happen and keeping character sheets of possible enemies on hand.

So, I'm curious, what do you do?

Fellow gurps character sheet user! Yea I was using that, thanks for reminding me. Its kinda sad that I didn't know what it was called off the top of my head but it really is a nice program especially for being free and open source. It makes making characters in gurps MUCH easier than by hand which is useful for a gurps newbie like me.

Ive heard a lot about foundry! It looks really neat! I'm more of a theater of the mind gm but do u think it would be decent for a newbie like me if I ever wanted to try to use maps? (Not sure if I'm using those terms right 😅 )
