Is it possible to disable autoplay next video on YouTube?

And disable YouTube shorts?

Thank you for developing open source extension.

In case it helps, at least on desktop browsers, there is a toggle switch to disable autoplay.

I agree about shorts. I’ve repeatedly “removed” them by clicking “less like this” under the ellipsis next to the Shorts heading, but they keep coming back. I’ve also submitted UX feedback about this customer hostile (I pay for YouTube premium) pattern. It’s frustrating when features like this are force fed to you.
