I made Desktop YouTube Music because I was tired of Spotify's bad performance, frequent advertisements, and bad suggestions.
I figured that since Google is one of the major companies trying to give you the best suggestions, that YouTube Music would be the way to go.
I used the web version for a while, but then I wondered if they had made a desktop app version like Spotify.
No, they hadn't. Why? I have no idea.
There are a couple user-made versions (excluding the one for Google Play Music, that's unrelated), but I thought I could do better.
I use Electron to make and modify the app, adding features that the community wants.
It won't update! This is because I recently changed the name of the GitHub repository.
Very rarely, the installer fails to open because it is still locked by the automatic update downloader.
A memory leak occurs when your device loses internet connection for an extended period of time.
It's easy! Just go to releases, expand Assets
, and install the correct version for your computer. No macOS yet, sorry guys.
The application logo, and Discord Rich Presence icon are owned by YouTube Music.
