A Mac user's dock is a sacred place. We customize our dock to no end, and if you're ultra organized like me, you even use dock separators to group your app icons.

Click the Dock icon
Uncheck the Show recent applications in Dock checkbox

wow, so the solution is “just go to the expected place and untick one checkbox”
I guess this may be too much for many of mac users but I doubt they will be able to read text as long as this one either way
I clicked this cause I was curious what kind of shenanigans, rain dances and unholy sacrifices you had to do but it turned out it was absolutely reasonable!

Actually, mine was already unchecked (I have OS Mohave for a while). I checked and unchecked again, and they are still the same 504 docs under Recents. No way to delete them; unless I delete them manually but it will delete the original docs in my computer.
