If we’re talking about the people that brag about living off-grid on social media without being aware of the irony……

Yes.

The only off-grid-style content that I can tolerate is Nate Petroski.

I appreciate the whole tone of his videos, the pragmatism, Minion, the ducks. It all seems very genuine.

Same. The dudes attitude is amazing.

Also, I want to teach my dog: Go places, do things?

Why is the text for this almost all ads

It's some strange interaction between YouTube (which populates some parts of the HTML with ads) and Lemmy (which consumes them to make the summary).

I've seen it before - happens every time anyone posts a YouTube video.

The recourse for me, for now, seems:

trying "old.slrpnk.net" (since I notice you are from another server, that would be "other old Reddit style Lemmy interfaces¹") - the compact interface doesn't show the field crowded with advertising texts)
reporting a bug to Lemmy developers (now that I found the password for my GitHub account, I think I can describe it tonight)

Thanks for following up on this!
