Basically a indie game dev had issues with his game related videos on Vimeo.

It apparently features tits ...
The US of A doesn't like those.
Apple has the same policy.
Probably any American-led corporation.
Youtube will probably flag the video and ask any viewers to verify their age, or simply delete it.

No it doesn't.
That was a link to a Jacques Magazine preview video which vimeo is hosting.

Yeah, you're right.
I was probably too tired - and maybe dreaming about tits myself - just read the thing again.
It really sucks.
There are other options out there, so Vimeo is not the great service it once was.
A pity.

Sounds like my usual state of being.
Anyone remember Stage 6, the video hosting site run by Divx? I sadly discovered it's superior video quality just before it was shut down.

Bummer, I was actually planning on using Vimeo rather than YouTube, and this kinda crushed my "dreams".

you could have both... and be ready to swap them on your site (if that's what you'd use) in case this happens to you - though to me that's a bit too risky.
