What devices do you use for running games? (pathfinder.social)

Typically I use pen and paper, but I've been interested in a tablet or similar device for a while and am interested in what other people are using.

The reMarkable 2 seems like a really cool option to play with, but also pretty pricey for trying it out to see if it would even work well.

While it's not directly related, when playing in games, I usually use a paper character sheet for reference, a notepad for consumables, story notes, and HP, and Pathbuilder on my phone for spells.

Foundry can be used to run games in person quite well as long as you have a TV, or crappy projector or something. That's my plan for when I inevitably end up running a game face-to-face.

If you're willing to go the extra mile, there's a cool module under the Material Deck umbrella that allows you to roll physical dice into Foundry's dice roller, and use minis to control the tokens on the canvas.
