Hello, I'm sorry if this was already requested, I've searched a lot for it but found nothing.
It would be awesome to have a few video CRT/DOT filters added to PICO-8 console. It's something I experiment in Fake-08 and it really changes the vibe of the game, it's like adding texture/details in bland colors. It could even be something games could activate/deactivate automatically. Here a few examples with dot, scanlines, geom crt and off (real photos so there are some camera artifacts, sorry):
DOTS (my favorite)
GEOM CRT
SCANLINES
OFF (original)
I think this kind of filter works particularly well with low pixel density content, like PICO-8. What do you think?
for html exports, you can use one of these:

I am a new user and was going to post this as a feature request. Having a basic scanlines filter would be great. As an older user, I find scanlines reduce eyestrain.
If you have Windows, you can use Shaderglass on Pico8 and literally any other program or movie, etc. https://mausimus.itch.io/shaderglass
@hseiken yes I've seen that, looks cool, unfortunately I'm not running on Windows.
I suppose a Fantasy Monitor add on would fit the Pico universe!
