Video Archival Rack - ~50TB of Uncompressed Video Digitized (and Counting)!
Since you look to be deep into this, let me take the opportunity and ask what do you think of the vhs-decode project. Today's tools are already overkill for vhs, but what if you could squeeze every magnetic bit out of those medias? when I think floppy preservation nowadays, i think about flux copies and wonder if we're not also leaving some more on the plate (like teletext pages that are able to be ripped from home recordings).

I miss aertel It was a one-way(excl pg 777) internet without all the hate and doom and gloom and disagreements. Loved the aesthetic of it with the black background. No ads, no clickbait, just good times. Through times of boom and times of bust, late at night or during a match, It was there for us :)
Not that I’m aware of, but the people responsible for it released the software to capture the data. https://github.com/ali1234/vhs-teletext

Teletext Archive – open repository for teletext recoverers
How does one "recover" teletext data, you may wonder.
Apparently, there is software for extracting teletext signal recorded on VHS tapes with the help of a video capture hardware: https://github.com/ali1234/vhs-teletext
What amazingly strange hobbies people have!

Anyone remember those games you could play on your Sky box?
No problem, sounds like it's a hellish task recovering them though. If you're a Linux user you can join in as it's still an ongoing project.

This is the best way to play short of hooking up your needle printer as a faux teletype terminal.

Simulating Non-CRT Monitors with FFmpeg: Flat Panel Displays (2021)
Very related: Cool-Retro-Term (CRT) - a terminal that makes it look retro ;)
https://github.com/Swordfish90/cool-retro-term
- what terminal emulator do you use and why?

I just like writing old code

Cathode-Retro: A collection of shaders to emulate the display of an NTSC signal
Seems like a good spot to mention https://github.com/Swordfish90/cool-retro-term
Cool Retro Terminal is a nice accessory for when doing recording or screenshots - cause it looks cool. Can't use it as my daily driver tho.
And enough settings in there you can make it look like your favourite old one.

Does anyone know of a similar Windows equivalent to the now defunct Mac/iOS app "Cathode" ?
I'd guess most things you can get now are just regular command prompt style windows with a "retro" look (colour scheme). Oooh, you can change the text to green and maybe add a scan line effect. I am looking for a full experience like the Secret Geometry programs! The only similar-ish one I have found is Cool Retro Term, but that is for Linux and Mac only it seems :/

Cool Retro Terminal
I've enjoyed using this. I don't run it for long but I do run it sometimes for the sake of nostalgia. When I do run it, I run it in full screen for the complete experience. However, to balance practicality with nostalgia, I run a tmux session with the cool-retro-term, so that once I get tired of it, I can quickly switch back to my regular terminal without losing my terminal session.
The effects are configurable. I disable the settings named Burin, Glow Line, and RGB Shift to get crisper and less distracting experience. The RGB Shift setting is disabled for most built-in profiles anyway but enabled for some profiles like Vintage and IBM Dos. The Vintage profile is quite amusing. Everything is cranked way up. The blurry text and the incessant flickering of the screen create an unsettling impression that the monitor might break down any moment.
By the way, if you didn't notice it the app is named cool-retro-term and it abbreviates to CRT. The app icon[1] is also a CRT followed by the cursor. Guess what else abbreviates to CRT? Yes, "cathode-ray tube" of the cathode-ray tube (CRT) computer monitors
