I strongly prefer pixel art but late pixel art, Neo Geo / PSX / Saturn / CPS2 / IGS PGM quality pixel art. Not a big fan of 8bit or early 16bit but I don't dislike it either Picrel is Demon Front from IGS just because it deserves more love.
When it comes to the modern pixel art made for LCD screens, Shredders Revenge, Blasphemous, anything by Project Tengo, that kind of stuff makes me happy. I dislike the blockier or low quality stuff and am not a big fan of games that try and mimic 8bit.
For hand drawn, I don't dislike it when it is done well like Cuphead, Streets of Rage 4 or the imminent Silksong. There is a lot of trash though. 2.5D I am fairly biased against. It has it's standouts like DKC Tropical Freeze or Megaman 11 buuut most of it looks like shit and I despise when they take a pixel art masterpiece and remake it in low quality 2.5D like they did with Advance Wars.
Remakes of classic pixel art games should be done in pixel art and said pixel art should be better quality than the original. At worst pull an R-Type Dimensions and give me the original pixel as an option (though both modes look good, they did a good job).
