I want to pay for my own app purchases or subscriptions however I want to know if I can still share them within the family, such as third-party apps can I share my purchase with family members? I know that apple tv and podcasts are still shared however are apple music and icloud still shared or is it not?
The document linked above discussing purchase sharing, and from which you probably commenced your question, provides the answers.
When you turn on purchase sharing, everyone in your family gets access to apps, music, movies, TV shows, and books that family members buy.
Therefore, with purchase sharing turned off the sharing of the purchased content is unavailable for family members.
When purchase sharing is turned off, you can continue to share subscriptions like Apple TV+ and Apple Arcade. When Purchase Sharing is turned off, everyone must use their own payment method.
Subscriptions to Apple's services remain shared.

You can see apps at the source - the App store. On an iPhone open the App store app, touch on your picture in the top right corner, in the next screen touch on Purchased and in your list of family members you can see all the apps bought and shared by the members.On a Mac open App store and click on your image on the bottom left to open the account and the names of the family members.
Or family members can search for an app which has been bought and they can download it immediately.
In the Mac Music app click on the iTunes store in the column on the left, go down the page to the link to Purchased in the Features list and then you will see a list by member of the content. On iPhone, the iTunes Store app has a purchased tab which then is listed by family member.
Where do we see family member's purchases on our account? Is there a folder? Are they in our library? We can't find them anywhere.
