No. It means that the folder either isn't shared at all, or it's a shared folder with you as the only member. That column isn't related to shared links. It only applies to shared folders, which is a different type of sharing.

Just ignore the column that says Only You. It doesn't apply to shared links. Refer to the link I provided above about Shared Links.
