A quick glance at the HTML makes me think that it shouldn't be too hard to do. You basically want to setdisplay: noneon any<ytd-compact-video-renderer>element that contains a child element#progress. You won't be able to do that in CSS, but a Tampermonkey script should be simple enough. I'll have a go later and write an answer...

Currently, there is no treat/workaround to do so. Apart from manually block them one by one, there are no scalable solutions.
But there are extensions which can do so like:
- Subscriptions Grid For YouTube™
- YouTweak for YouTube™
- YouTube: Hide Watched Videos
- YouTube Watched
- Better Tube

That's a shame. I'm getting the same ~dozen music videos all the time but completely blocking them is overkill.
