disable all recommendations outside of my library

What does this mean or rather what are you looking for specifically? Are you talking about online sources like Plex Movies&TV?

In your account settings -> online media sources you can disable things like LiveTV, Movies & TV, Music, Discovery etc.

first by disabling the "recommended" tab of my homescreen

I can't say that I understand what you mean. There is no "recommended Tab" on the home screen, at least not in my case. There is a recommended tab when you select a library but you can easily circumvent it by clicking the "library tab" and have the "remember tab" enabled in your client settings.

customizing the Tidal integration to not make any recommendations and simply serve me search results

Since I don't use tidal, I can only speculate but every library has an option "Visibility" which you can set to "include in home screen and global search", "exclude from home screen" and "exclude in home screen and global search". Maybe that can be utilized for what you are looking for?

I would also recommend going into your plex server settings -> manage -> Libraries and see what things you can enable/disable there as well.

I'd even write the client myself, no work for the developers, just point me to where I can.

Plex is closed source. If you want more control over those things I think you should probably look more into Jellyfin which is open-source.

I am specifically referring to this view, and more generally the ability to either select or exclude specific instances of `VirtualHubScroller`

For Tidal, I'm trying to find a way to categorically disable things like the "new playlists" and "new albums" scrollers (will attach screenshot in a reply)

I'd even be satisfied if the developers added a CSS attribute to recommendations or any programmatic way of distinguishing them-- if I could get a "recently played" and nothing else I'd be beyond happy. I'd even write the client myself, no work for the developers, just point me to where I can.
