Unfortunately everyone thinks it's hilarious to use OpenGL for basic
drawing tasks nowadays. Things like GTK and Qt will randomly use GL
now. There is no more "things are fine as long as I don't use 3D" --
everything is 3D now.

Try removing nouveau_dri.so -- that will ensure no 3d accel is used,
while keeping your 2d accel provided by the nouveau ddx.
