I was recently a bit surprise by seeing video of RPG tables where everyone has a laptop, and I even saw a thread about whether GM allowing only paper sheet are reasonable

However, on my experience (and I am part of big club, so I interact with a lot of players), some GM have a laptop or tablet especially in the era of .pdf books, but most player would use only paper.

So I am curious what’s your take on electronic device, is it fully banned at your table, a GM only tool, a stuff that some player may use for note taking ? Or do you use VTT technology like you would online when playing in person ?

    I don’t have a problem with using a computer or phone at the table, for the game. My only rule there for a physical game would be that we use real, physical dice and not an electronic set because real world physics > mathematical algorithms of “randomness.” And if you are just gonna scroll SM or watch videos the whole game, why are you there?
