Can you point me in the direction of how disable truly all of it? I don’t want news/ads/recommendations in the start button, bottom bar, icon tray, search results etc.
Not entirely. There are many, many hidden telemetry settings that normal users can’t access. It’s why stuff like WPD (windows privacy dashboard) exist. Windows doesn’t let you uninstall most of that stuff either.
Is there a way to disable the ads, news and recommendations yet? Until then I’m not upgrading.
Tbf you can disable all of that so there is barely (if any) difference to win10 in regards to this.

WinAeroTweaker will let you decide what junk you want to disable.
Disabling all of those are standard settings in Windows 10 and 11.
Most are just right click on the icon/taskbar, opening settings and finding the setting that disables it.
