CRT is laughing, and not in its grave, because it will outlast them all.
I was actually thinking what would lead to a Alien Earth type situation where everyone is still using CRT.

The screen will, but my ears won’t. Idk I am just old enough to have been at the tail end of CRTs, but I can’t stand the high pitched whine. They all do that, right?

I'd say it depends on the voltage and hertz you're running, but yeah, hearing it isn't anything super special.
I was once so fking annoyed at this "kennel" my former gf got chihuahuas from, because the grower used an "anti-mouse" device and seeing how I could hear it whine, I'm pretty sure the 20 chihuahuas could as well.

You can't hear it much out of your 20's unless you're an edge-case-human. The frequencies in question that you're referring to are ones that almost all humans are deaf to by the time they're 30.

I’ve got a buddy who runs full brightness on every phone and complains when he gets screen burn-in. “If full brightness will cause burn-in, they shouldn’t let you set it that high.”
No, dude, they give you the option so you can use the phone outdoors in sunlight. But you shouldn’t run it that bright all the time, it’s bad for it and a waste of battery.
Every time I hand him my phone to show him something he cranks my brightness all the way up. I’m worried about his eyesight.
How is he burning them that bad?
My current phone only has the faintest bit of burn in at the clock and battery/status symbols from the top bar, and it's so faint I have to actively open an all white image and really look at it to notice -

OLED burn-in hasn't been an issue for years. Last time I got burn-in was 2014.
All of my screens are OLED (PC monitors, TV, phone, car stereo). The oldest display in my house is from 2019. None of them are showing any signs of burn-in, and I obsessively check for it all the time.

I'm 37, and have absolutely destroyed my hearing by always having a loud sound system with booming subs in my car ever since I was a teenager, yet I can still hear up to ~17kHz. I can always tell when I'm in a house with a running CRT.
If you're younger than me and can't hear CRTs, can't tell the difference between FM and HD Radio, or the difference between a 96kbps MP3 and 320k/lossless, then it might be a good idea to get a hearing test.

Shhh… quit trying to convince these people, let them have their inferior response times and colours. Less competition for the enlightened, means that prices won’t skyrocket due to an influx of demand.

I'm looking at my plasma screen from 2010 right now.

I have that sound all the time! Got a just degaus it, that's the best part of CRTs, making it dance.

All that edge LED crap was such BS marketing. Even most renditions of the zoned backlighting are trash that makes obvious bright spots and glowing features in the wrong scenes.
Anyone selling a "LED TV" that was just LED backlighting should've been fined.
Yup. I got it in 2017 and the backlight of it isn’t bleeding anywhere, the quality itself is very good and it runs on Linux and white it was marketed as smart, it’s pretty dumb - which is good because it never asked me to accept any terms of services since I first turned it on.

I have a 55" Samsung plasma TV from 2015 and a 2020 83" Samsung OLEDTV and a 2023 53" Ultrawide Samsung computer monitor.
Each one has hours and hours of use a day. None has burn-in.
The only thing you do notice is the 53" Ultrawide image will shift around every 5 minutes.

Not with my tinnitus, which I've had to live with since I was about 5 years old.
