Does anyone here on Spacehey make videos?

I want to make chill, very early Youtube style videos of me in my room doing whatever. I already have a bunch of long videos of me practicing guitar and I really want to edit them and share them on here. I'd upload it to Youtube, but all my "marketing" for it will only be here.  I'm not trying to be monetized at all, some of my videos have the music I actually listen to playing in the background (which might cause issues but if push really comes to shove, I'll use a different video hosting website).

My issue is I don't really know what I want the video to look/feel like because the only O.G Youtubers I watch are Dan and Phil. I loveee their old videos, I just don't know how to emulate their style or if I should even try to.
Another thing is, I've never editing a video before and I don't know where to begin to find my  editing "style". I would love to take inspiration from some people already making videos with that early 2000s kinda awkward, low quality, "idk what I'm doing but I'm bored and this is fun" vibe.

I know what I don't want to do: A lot of cuts to different camera angles, any B-roll, making it seem in any way professional or modern. Its not the style I'm going for. I tend to jump into ideas and abandon them before really getting into it because I don't know what I'm doing!

So all I'm asking really is if anyone can recommend me some chill, early 2000s vibe Youtubers that I can take inspiration from. I'm also asking if anyone has any advice on how to develop an editing style.
And additional note, I installed DaVinic Resolve so any tips on how to use that too would be awesome. I have only watched a few tutorials. Also I have a pretty

I cannot wait to see your videos!

Honestly, the thing with "authentic" videos from the early youtube is that there was barely any proper editing to it. Most of us just did not know how to do it, the peak was adding some cringe transitions and text. In those old videos, people would not even cut off the moment when they turn on the camera and then take time to actually go and sit in front of it.

Especially since you are not worried about YT being your main source of income, you can relax and slowly discover your personal style.

Yea your right! I really need to stop over thinking these things I can just start off easy and discover whatever else I want to do later. Thanks for the boost of confidence :D
