Turning Autoplay off, and getting rid of ads (Youtube Premium is well worth it across all devices) is a big level up. Blocking shorts is the other thing.

There are solutions for blocking shorts. Ie unblock origin filters, as seen previously on front page of HN

    There are also solutions for blocking ads without subscribing to premium.

      If we all did that they wouldn’t offer an ad free option.

      I’m happy to pay so others don’t have to, I’ve been both sides of this fence.

      YouTube premium is good value imo.
