Not a complete solution, but I like to block the elements that are most distracting to me.

Does that actually stop the autoplay or just hide the countdown?

Neither.
If you use the toggle next to the closed caption to turn off autoplay, instead of playing another video the player will show thumbnails for other videos after the current one finishes. These filters prevent those suggestions from showing up, and you just get a black rectangle when the video is finished.
