Install the Youtube Red app on Ubuntu and watch Youtube videos.


The Youtube Red app is handy to install and access your Youtube account with a simple and unified app. You may log in and use this to play Youtube videos and download music and video as well. This would be very useful for listening to music and watching videos. It seems to run poorly over Xephyr, but if I was using the Linux desktop it would run better. I might be missing a part of the Xorg system by using Xephyr.

The Red Youtube app runs over SSH with Xephyr.

To install this on Ubuntu, run this command.

sudo snap install red-app

Maybe it is slow as it uses the snap system instead of being installed conventionally, but who knows? It would be very useful indeed to use on your Linux desktop.
