The use of "self-hosting" is a little confusing here. To be clear, he wasn't self-hosting his video. It was published on YouTube, and the guidelines and procedures in question are Google's.
Edit: I'm not defending Google's actions. It's just that the title gave the impression that a video he had self-hosted was somehow subject to "community guidelines", which didn't make sense.
Edit 2: Ten downvotes in less than an hour, on a clarification comment? Wow. I'm disappointed to see that level of targeted negativity here. What rotten behavior. :(
Not really, no. The video topic was about self-hosting your own media server, so the title is perfectly clear
You're being downvoted for being factually wrong about the title. It's not targeted negativity.
To add on, the video is about self hosting, it was not self hosted itself.
Its just confusing to you.
