It’s because there are certain rich kids who grow up with excess and they get really into this style of off-grid and/or minimalist living.

Thanks for sharing that channel, I love these builds!

You mean it's like a lifestyle-hobby-pastime-trend? I suppose if you're rebellious and go stark and minimal counter to your parents' complex opulence. Some go save the whales, I guess this is another way.

I peek in at a lot of alt-home channels. Many of them are bland day-to-day stuff or a project in process and few do concise summary videos worth sharing. The good ones I post in /s/Architecture, /s/DIY, and /s/OffGrid, and eventually I'll make a dedicated /s/Earthships for my fave. If compelled to I could start some /s/Architecture/wiki lists of alt-homes and related stuff - such as the channels I frequent.
