Recursion finally clicked after I drew the call stack on paper. Pen and paper or a whiteboard app for DSA?

Tried a whiteboard app for a few days and it felt like too much tooling. Paper is messy, but I remember the shapes better. Do you switch between the two depending on the problem, or pick one and stick with it?
