That's a good list of tools. Thanks!

Another superb and concise video. The closing thesis is perhaps the most important takeaway imho: 80+% of the game is at the table with our friends, whereas the rules and tools make up less than 20%. I’ve found that 20% all too often gets the focus and the philosophy of the Lazy DM correctly returns our focus to what matters.

Great timing. I've been asked to run for some friends, and we're probably going to run most sessions virtually, due to kids, jobs, travel distance, etc. I was almost ready to dive back through older videos to refresh myself on your tool set and voilà: here's a fresh look at them.

Great video as always. You’re a blessing to this hobby community, good sir.

When I try to check out the Discord template, it takes me to a tab which says it's opening the app, but it never does.

is there a good way to search for dysonlogo maps, like by size, with keywords or something like that? I can see myself endlessly scrolling through all the awesome maps and ending up spending more time picking one than drawing one myself.

I'm just endlessly scrolling... I don't feel like the search function adds enough granularity to actually be helpful. But scrolling is really soothing ;)

We use jitsi for video communications, I use Campaign Logger and Evernote for notes and occasionally, we draw maps badly with something like Paint if you need to clarify a certain location. It's great to have other options, but so far those are the ones that I prefer. Btw, I'm using a two monitors desktop, so I can have jitsi on one screen and a browser on the other.
