Most CRT shaders I try don't look anywhere close to a CRT television. They look like what a hipster 14 year old thinks a CRT looks like based on carefully taken Reddit posts and found footage horror.
I used to own a CRT until a few months ago when it went out, and having grown up poor I still owned or knew people that own CRT televisions well past when flat panel displays were standard.
The individual parts of the grille/matrix/whatever and the scanlines have only been noticeable to me if I was way too close to the TV, I mostly forgot about any subtle curvature of the display as I played if I ever noticed anyway, the glow and color bleeding was only really intense if I configured the TV wrong, and games still looked pretty sharp when played through component cables.
Are there any shaders that give a similar sense of vibrancy and blending of things meant to be blended without making my game look like a smudged mess?
I have a 24 inch 1080p monitor and a 43 inch 4K television if that helps, though I mostly use the former.
