You can run a web browser on a VPS using SSH, and the screen will show your local machine's output.

I located X11 but I'm unsure about its usage.

For X forwarding via SSH you require: A running X server on the VPS, an SSH server with trusted X forwarding activated, a compatible SSH client with trusted X forwarding enabled, and an X server on the client side. Setting this up can be quite challenging, particularly if the client is Windows—there are roughly two X servers for Windows, one of which is a commercial product. There are helpful guides available. Personally, I prefer TightVNC for such tasks. Yes, capturing the entire screen works, but it's much simpler than establishing X itself.
