I can just close them and press play with no issues. I am running Adguard Adblocker, Blocktube, and Ublock Origin. Also running Return Youtube Dislike but it's iffy. I was running Sponserblock but it needs more work. It's the one where it will fast forward past the creator saying "this video is sponsered by raid shadow legends tranny kike tunnel edition" but I've seen that skip large chunks of the video with no sponsors and youtube itself freak out.
