just finished watching it, impressive as usual, i like speedruns, especially those with bunny-hop like quake or half-life, i think it adds something really special and ofc it adds more skills to master :)
The nightmare one had multiple people running it though, this new one was one guy. There are also few places in nightmare mode which you can do faster than in easy mode. For example the part where you jam the monster between the doorway at 1:47.
- I'd watched 10 min multisegment speedrun on "easy". You may not telling me about "more faster tricks", and "more rocketjumps". That's why I'd asked about kind of this run.
I'm not telling you about rocket jumps, because only difference across difficulties in Quake is the amount of enemies and how fast they refire/attack. Also, Jukebox's speedrun is listed as "SS". Tell me if I'm wrong, but I think that means single segment.
It doesn't say it's a multi segment on this topic either, so why the automatic assumption that it is a multi segment? It doesn't specify the category in the topic. But what it does specify is that Jukebox's run beat the previous record by Elgu, which is consistent with what is shown on that "less popular speedrun" site, which lists both previous and new record as "SS". Here's Elgu's run which is also consistent with what the site is showing. The site's popularity is of uppermost irrelevance. The point is that it's archiving run records evidently properly and until there's any other reference showing strictly different archiving which also isn't out of date or unverified, it shall do just fine.

- The point of my question was only to specify which kind this speedrun is: multi/single. Not for allegation which run or site better, or something. I hope it's clear, and it's no need to talk more.
Your point is still hazy, but it matters not. It's you who needs to be clear:
The youtube description links you directly to: http://www.speedrun.com/Quake where the run is categorized as SS where it's also verified by Elgu, the previous record holder. So either all of that is false or your source (which you forgot to link) is false.
I'm not telling you to not ask questions. I'm simply providing you the information that is available and where it's available.
It listed on speeddemosarchive.com quake forum. Multisegment.
For other people to verify or assess if this information is valid, you should provide the link - so that they're looking at the same thing as you are. I could not find the forum thread or a main page column. So link up, please.
