i just got my first 2x2 today, learned ortega without tutorials since i already knew 4lll from 3x3.
And with my 2x2 i got an easy first layer and a pbl skip!
Incredible! I usually average 15 seconds on my 2x2.
the time was 8.662
the scramble is here. Try it and see what you get!

ik but its kinda like pll if you think about it
Again, no it is not. PLL on 2x2 is a part of PBL where one layer is already solved. This means that PLL on 2x2 is PBL but PBL isn't (always) PLL.
There are 5 possible cases (ignoring solved state) when opposite sides are oriented and 3x3 last layer algs can only be used for 2 of those cases.

3x3 PLL alg can be applied:

using PLL is NOT possible:
