I remember Links, the text-based browser that runs in your terminal, had a framebuffer mode that you could use to get rudimentary graphical web browsing on a system with no X11 installed.

Yeah, also mpv has a framebuffer driver. AFAIK Qt has one as well, so any Qt program could run without X/wayland.
