an understanding look from Picard (exasperated at 'the way the Ferengi are')
a monologue written as 'an apology to fans'
The ship named after the actor who played the Ferengi Nog
The VOYAGER Doctor's use of Bones' "I'm a Doctor, Not a ___"-catchphrase.
Bones smiled at us when he managed to get the last word against Kirk.
When Worf replied "We do not discuss it with outsiders" in reference to 'the forehead-ridges (had by TNG Klingons but not TOS Klingons)
When Tasha Yar surreptitiously 'waved goodbye' in the last scene filmed of her original time on the cast
Anton Yelchin's (Chekov) angst at having to change into 'a red shirt' (because we all know what happens to 'the red shirts' )
when the animated Sulu actually winks at the screen when Kirk asks him to teach a martial-arts move
When Cochrane gives the 'Roll Credits'-line, "You people, you're all astronauts on ... some kind of STAR TREK?"
Is one of those your favorite 'fourth wall break'? Do you have any that Trek Culture didn't mention? My favorite is was "Uhura's first name"---one she didn't have until a 1982 STAR TREK novel gave her the name used in the 2009 reboot (Nyota)---though some fans called her "Penda" and some "Samara" ... and those names might be 'Paper Towns' (to prove I "stole them" from the trivia-book I heard them from).

I've watched some of the very original Star Trek episodes in recent months, they were made in the late sixties and are still very enjoyable.

There was one great line where Bones said "I'm a doctor, not a bricklayer" when asked to help a dying non-carbon based life form.

On Paramount+, they have (I think) ALL the STAR TREK-shows & -movies. Is it available in your country?

They are available on Netflix, that's where I've been watching them.
