That's an often repeated claim people make about pixel art and CRT monitors esp on social media, but I think it's just a trite bite that sounds good rather than something that's meaningful.

Plenty of people debunking it including the person she took the screenshots from.

- djmips 2y agoThat doesn't debunk it at all - but some good points were made. Note that the artists of the day were also using CRT displays just higher resolutions. They certainly did test their work on the target. Some people obviously did more tweaking based on what they saw on the target machine and some less. This continues to this day.
- crtasm 2y agoThat's a screenshot of a video made by tiktok user "mylifeisanrpg". I don't know where the image of the sprites came from but Fisch doesn't say he made it.
