@pameeela except I've found the core one to be the best for bulk upload.
I'm going to solve this as a permissions thing, but in the meantime I have added a "Media created in the last 2 hours" filter to the media library views displays so that at least it's not the whole library they see.

Perhaps a workaround. I am adding a contextual filter to limit items to those owned by the current user, but it needs a patch from https://www.drupal.org/node/3401726 →

Just went through this with @mlncn
If you go to the media library settings at /admin/config/media/media-library
then you can enable the advanced UI. Enabling this adds a button to your media selection interface that says "Save and insert"Otherwise, just make sure the required permission on your media library views is set to "Access media overview" instead of the default "View media"
More of an aside, but one other gotcha is that your user has to have permission to add media of the types in the field.
Once all of this is set up, you can use the media library widget to add media without having access to view the media library.
While this is great, it is all still very confusing to set up, and even still it would be great if the advanced UI was more configurable so that, for example, I could hide the "Save and select button" that doesn't do anything when your site is configured like this.
