How do I get rid of this annoying feature on YouTube?

Right now I'm listening Murray Perahia playing Bach's English Suites on a YouTube channel. I'd like to see all the accompanying text, but most of it is covered up by crap that says "Up next" and "Autoplay". Is there a way I can get rid ot this Autoplay crap?

See: https://www.lifewire.com/turn-off-autoplay-on-youtube-4178239

Also in your settings you may want to disable:
Info cards [ ] Show in-video info cards

That's not my problem. My problem is that the window giving me the choice to turn autoplay on or off is covering up the text that I want to read. How do I get rid of this window? I don't see "Info cards ..." in my settings. By the way, I'm using an Apple Mac desktop computer.

These rectangles come up right at the end of the window obscuring most of what is at the bottom of the screen.

I think you just go to settings and turn off "Annotations".

On edit: I don't think that works. Try this: https://www.ghacks.net/2019/01/03/how-to-block-endscreen-video-recommendations-on-youtube/
