So does Tachiyomi also provide the external sources? My impression was they just did the app, and you got things from elsewhere, but I've never used it (or even heard of it before today).

It's also already got 3 forks, they link them on their website.

Tachiyomi is just a comic reader, but it can aggregate from A LOT of sources, both local files and websites. Each online source (mangadex, tapas) requires a plug-in to work. Those plugins need maintenance and workarounds for stuff like cloudflare blocks.

Needless to say a lot of content hosts aren't fans of a client that pulls content without the user ever seeing an ad or something, so these plug-ins tend to break.

No, tachiyomi is just a browser for other sites.
