It says (updated) but what is the update?
Update (one day later):
YouTube has just reinstated the video, after what I presume is a human review process. I wish it didn’t take making noise on socials to get past the ‘AI deny’ process :(
Go forth, and self-host all the things! I’ll post further updates in this issue in my YouTube project.

He means self-hosting as in hosting his own PeerTube instance? Right??? 🙏
All European citizens have the right to object to automated decision making under the GDPR
YouTube restored the video, but not until Jeff had made a huge stink about it (and rightfully so, those yt fuckers can eat a dick).
Yeah, and it was a one off restore, so others who are mentioning self hosting will still be taken down as long as that policy remains.
I hate youtube so much. When are they moving all to
freetubepeertube or something? How long do we all accept Google youtube?
Yeah I remember once when my friends Synology started acting harmful when he run jellyfin on it. it started off gasing mustard gas. It poisoned the well and made his son addicted to zyns. All of the cars in his neighborhood needed new batteries. The country’s GTP dropped a lot that month and the ozone layer is gone. Thank God YouTube stopped platforming such harmful content. Too bad so luch damage has already been done.

Jeff should consider hosting on Peertube and keeping his Patreon active. He’s awesome and more than capable, I’d mirror him in a hot second.
He’s on float plane. I think he’s trying to make a living, so I’d assume YouTube ad revenue is a factor
Flotplane is a decent enough alternative. They keep gutting YouTube’s ad-rev, sooner or later, something will have to give.

I’ll never support anyone on that platform. I’ll never do anything to give LTT a cent.
It’s pretty harmful to Googles cloud business.
I think a few folks haven’t read the article or know who Jeff Geerling is. The title of this article is confusing.
Jeff posted a video on YT about how to self-host your own media in 2024. He recently got a violation from YT that YT considers his video to be harmful and dangerous. He appealed, got denied, but then the update is that YT removed the violation.
Saw the video… It mentions ”ripping” and even shows clips of some blockbuster movies. No wonder any copyright-sensitive automation gets triggered pretty fast. This will only get worse.
it would be amazing if geerlingguy was the one to make youtube go mask off
Isn’t that what an mp3 players main purpose is? Are mp3 players bad now?
Yes cause they can’t sell you a subscription for your mp3 player.
Fucking rent seeking behaviour from corporate parasites.
That’s the one thing idiocracy got wrong it wouldn’t be Costco it would be Rent-A-Center
Costco bought RAC in a stunning buyout in 2437 after Costco’s CEO Harambe Memelord Disney Jr. offered RAC’s CEO Squiggy John John John John Johnson a 2-for 1 deluxe latte coupon and an extra big-ass fry.
MP3 players aren’t bad, they’re just mostly obsolete when smartphones can do the same thing and we mostly already have one.
I like to keep several GB of music on my phone from my MP3 library, and I have no streaming music accounts. I pay once for my music at most.
Your phone is an mp3 player. It just does other stuff too.
I remember when the iPhone came out, it was a little more than an iPod that made calls. The rest is history.
I think you might be misremembering; the original iPhone had YouTube, maps (though it lacked a GPS for whatever reason), a camera, Safari, and even a primitive HTML based App Store that paved the way for modern PWAs. Games like Bejeweled were available months before iOS 2.0 came with the App Store.
The Moto ROKR was an iPod that made calls.
Correct, if you ain’t streaming from corpo, you are denying them engagement and profits
That’s a crime, shit Lord
I cannot stress enough that I would download a car.
Hey kid… You wanna self host an api call? 😈
You wouldn’t steal an API call…
Would YOU download an API call?
