I'm living life in the virtual terminal, no graphical session, although the framebuffer does render graphics.

Did some further investigation. I've build fbpdf (https://github.com/aligrudi/fbpdf, with all the -lmupdf-* removed from the Makefile to make it build) and this works very well. With pipe-viewer I can watch YT video's (which uses mpv under the hood).

Thanks for the inspiration.

I didn't know about those. I'll give fbpdf a try. As for YouTube, I tried to get videos working with mpv but it's not happy for some reason. Works fine on my glibc void Linux laptop, just not on this one.
