CRTs did break. And they did suffer from burning.

Just buy a non-smart modern TV, you won't need a replacement and it won't connect to the internet.

Please tell me where I can get a modern high-res TV that is NOT smart. I have tried but cannot find them anywhere

I recently bought a Thomson TV that's HD and with no smart features at all. The only downside is that the image contrast is not the best.

Your best bet would be a commercial display. Though it'll be double the price, at least, and you'll need an hdmi switch and a soundbar more like as not.

Give me one specific example of a non smart modern TV that has a decent quality panel please.

[–] Itdidnttrickledown@lemmy.world 2 points 6 hours ago

There are some that have very little connectivity. They are very expensive commercial units made by Sharp and even Samsung.

What's a quality panel? You mean you can't natively get clear resolution on your TV? Doesn't sound very smart to me.
