An impressive effort has been made to replicate the exact appearance of old CRT televisions on modern LCD and OLED panels. The page I’ve linked is very well written.

It depends. Graphics weren’t spiky pixels as you can recall. That produced a far softer image, aside from scanlines and all the other stuff.
By now I can hardly play retro games from that time without shader, since the impression is auch a difference.
And I always was a pc player (from 8086/8088 on) and my consoles from mega drive on always used scart.
Still.
Oh I love the nostalgia of it all of course. But we couldn’t wait to get rid of CRTs at the time is all. Such is life

I keep harping on this, but this is a massive regret - sure they were bulky and power hungry, but I would sell a kidney (not necessarily mine) to be able to buy a modern CRT to enjoy my old PS1 light gun games (Pount Blank, Ghoul Panic, Rescue Shot, Time Crisis etc.) again.
