OLL

PLL ..

right ?

Learn PLL before OLL. There are fewer of them and they are more useful. You can get to sub-20 without knowing full OLL.

Figure out F2L intuitively as you're working on the 2 look OLL/PLL stage. You can look into keyhole if it helps you understand things better, but I don't think it's an absolutely necessary stepping stone.

For me it is (will be) like this (COLL means Corner Orientation Last Layer, not Corners Of Last Layer in these scenarios):
Beginners + 4 alg last layer (EOLL, COLL, CPLL, EPLL)
Keyhole + 4 look last layer (EOLL, COLL, CPLL, EPLL)
Keyhole + unmatched last pair + edge control + COLL + PLL (this is what I have been working at the last 2 years)
Intuitive F2L + edge control + the other COLL + EPLL
Start all over with Petrus/Roux/Waterman ;)

A more mainstream route would be
Beginners + 4 alg last layer (EOLL, COLL, CPLL, EPLL)
Intuitive F2L + EOLL, COLL, PLL
Multislotting F2L + OLL + PLL

Intuitive F2L should come before PLL. Less memorisation is needed and they should bring down your times more significantly.
