As the title says, what's your go-to when it comes to things like notes and maps. Personally, I like Obsidian and Tabletop RPG Map editor II from the lead dev of Dead Cells.

I also like https://when2meet.com/ for resolving scheduling conflicts.

Logseq for notes and "Lazy GM" checklist, GIMP for carving out maps from the ones I have, Tiled to populate them. Tarot (I mean the cards, not some software) for populating initial background connections when I'm completely stuck

EDIT: I know that this will be unpopular here but I also use Mistral to convert my dry three sentences into radio speaker text with the right angle or mail exchanges my players "might" find on the host while hacking

I’d be interested to hear more about how you use tarot cards as prompts!

I'll put writing a post about that on my to-do list :)
