ESP32 connected to a 16x2 LCD Display
There is an I2C lcd adapter (using PCF8574) that drives the LCD using a I2C interface, saving you a bunch of pins. That way you can use local sensors as well, if you want.. Google link - Link to library

Does anyone know what could possible cause this output? More info in comments
I don't have any bare displays, but some of the I2C backpack displays I have wouldn't work with the stock library. I finally found one here that worked reliably with a range of displays, but that won't solve your problem as it's all I2C and not nibble-mode writes.

I2C 16x2 LCD display
In addition to the other two comments, I'll add: I've had issues over 25 years with the HD44780 initialization sequence... it can be horribly sensitive to the exact timing. I tried a couple of different libraries for the backpack displays and had the best luck with https://github.com/mathertel/LiquidCrystal_PCF8574
