Show HN: Streamus – A Chrome extension for listening to YouTube music

Streamus has been my personal project for almost three years. I had become frustrated with managing music hosted on YouTube and decided to streamline the process.
The client is written with Backbone/Marionette and is backed by a C# server. The entire project is open-source:

Streamus enjoys ~150K weekly users and continues to grow after recently updating the UI with a design inspired by Google's Material Design principles. Screenshots: http://imgur.com/a/vyd56
I have no concrete plans to monetize; Streamus is mostly serving as an invaluable learning experience. I went into this with very little knowledge of JavaScript, design, and development workflow. Pushing myself to better the product has forced me to markedly improve in all aspects.
I'd love to have feedback, critique, or possibly find other developers interested in implementing some features. :)
