My players have the absolute worst mini’s ever.

I started using the Field Notes DM Notebook and I have a LOT of thoughts! There is no space for initiative or combat tracking–which is likely the single most important thing. There is no great section for quotes. The player section is not “large and flexible enough”–overall it is just a mess and not that useful so far.

Expect more updates on this, but so far my thinking is that index cards are still the best way to go for D&D note taking.
