the chromium-based browsers have a headless mode which can render to
an image fairly well, e.g.
iridium --headless --disable-gpu --screenshot=/tmp/out.png \
--window-size=3840,2160 "$url"
(note that "unveil" restrictions apply, you can write to /tmp or
~/Downloads but not most other dirs).
(there's also --print-to-pdf).
