Nice catalog. I also prefer bitmap fonts for terminals on low DPI and even 32" 4K monitors. The OLDSCHOOL PC FONT RESOURCE is a treasure trove.

Ditto!! I’m hooked on the 8x8 high-fantasy font EagleSpCGA Alt3 from the Ultimate PC Font Pack. I use it everywhere.

Well, almost everywhere. The square font tends to break certain application layouts. So those get an 8x14 IBM VGA font.
