I have always wanted to.. unfortunately at this time of my life- when I finally have access to tools needed to make one.. I have a lot else going on
Organize your video editor project knowing that it will be an occasional hobby.
Months between edits, and years between releases.

Mainly with scene and music selection.. I have a decent collection from sites I subscribed to and paid for over the past while.. I just wonder when the time comes and I have a finished piece of work with said scenes and nothing specific but any sort of music I decide on.. will I run into any copywrite issues or anything of that nature if uploaded to mega ? I wouldn't choose to go on a streaming site. But am unclear of the anonymity and such behind uploading a creation to mega. Though that seems to be the best option
Supposing that you're only worried about your files being taken offline by DMCA actions, assume it will always happen. That's why I only release to torrent and encourage everyone else to do whatever else might happen. I started out doing more, posting to stream, mega, etc. None of what I put to mega has been removed by DMCA. Maybe someone else's accounts, but not mine. Nearly everything I put to stream is gone. All of my torrents are seeded, accepting all of the details we could parse there.
I stopped posting outside of torrent for the same reason that I seed to minimum 1.25 ratio on anything I take.

Also I realize there's a guide for making your own in this board (although 10 years old)I just wondered if I get to the point of being done is it possible to have someone else add the beat meter for me if they would be so willing to collaborate ? I originally thought of going no beat meter but the more I think of it its kind of a staple to have.
The Beatmeter Generator software is newer than those guides. The threads about it here have most of what you would expect from a proper tutorial. We can answer the missing questions. You might find a collaborator to do the meter for you, but try that software yourself. Decisions about the meter are usually best made by the same person arranging the video and audio.
I think that something like 60-70% of the total Cock Hero releases here are done without and/or before Beatmeter Generator was being used. They used other animation software, including the older guides, and some similar software in Premiere and Vegas. I use the BMG, Davinci Resolve, Photoshop, Synfig Studio, and Audacity.

And wondered if it would be worth it to do an up to date version of the guide to creating your own. No big deal if no one is interested, most the info & tips are there just a few links that aren't working any longer.
It's mostly done already, just not written up in a single post.
An example, from what I've put into my Resolve templates:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_AyXx35hb3w
I have two music tracks set to listen for compression, and every other audio track set to send to compression listeners.
That's the Fairlight view of a remaster of my earlier BFG release, in my newest template three years later. Every other track (video audio, beatmeter generator audio) compresses the music tracks so that those are heard louder than the music. It needs a few listens and adjustments to the video's audio volume. I often put Resolve's Noise Reduction on video audio, and there have been some very complex audio FX stacks in my work. It all came from web search then trial and error.
Those are the audio FX types I put on the Lexi Sindel clip from
CH DW 2.3 Cock Hero Dual Wield 2 Astronomia.
Every release improves the next one's templates.
but I guess I more so meant how might you stay focused on the creative process while in it, and fighting the urge to just play. I may just need to work on my patience with this process cause every time I put some work in. I don't get very far before stopping and going to one of my fav ch's
