A new way of drawing boxes in the terminal?
Displaying images in the terminal has actually been possible for a while (through sixel and friends) and video playback has been demonstrated as well (https://github.com/jD91mZM2/termplay). Terminals also have had mouse support for years now (most ncurses based applications have mouse support out of the box and xterm and friends will often work with mice just fine as well). Really, it's only a matter of picking a modern terminal emulator. I like Wezterm but others prefer Kitty. There are more options, of course, pick the one you like most.

Wayland/X11 is bloat, any video players that run on cli direct to framebuffer?
you could use a program like https://github.com/jD91mZM2/termplay to watch videos without xorg

- Convert ttf to, psf, psfu or another format that tty recognizes?

Wayland/X11 is bloat, any video players that run on cli direct to framebuffer?
and if you want better video quality you could try to use https://github.com/uobikiemukot/yaft to allow sixel support but i could never get any audio when using yaft

The year of the GNU/Linux gaming rig is nigh!
That's sixel based, so it isn't tty compatible (unless one compiles yaft from source, which is so esoteric that it isn't even packaged in Debian).
