How do y'all organize your DM notes? (beehaw.org)

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?

I used to keep text files on my computer, I got into a rabbit hole creating a bot to roll dice, store characters and also notes, and eventually I found Notion, I started to use it and so far it's been great, I haven't kept too many notes, but I'm organizing a Monster of the Week world and it's been great for creating monsters and planning sessions that link with the monsters so I have all of the info available easily.
