Can you name one which is as lightweight and simple to use as terminal escape codes and supported by almost any platform with a screen and keyboard?

Sixel could be, but it’s not as widely supported as I’d like. But even though it could be used much more, I think the borders in the story would be very useful, and I hope something like this gains traction.

Yeah, X11.

You might think it's a bit complicated, but I counter: so are terminal escape codes.

HTML.

		I was talking about native applications, otherwise there would literally be no other choice than HTML anyway.
