So over the span of a couple of days, I tried solving the FTO without any tutorials or reference, and I have made it to the last layer specifically PLL (if that's a step). Basically three center (1-color pieces) need to rotate counter-clockwise, and three edges (2-color pieces) need to rotate clockwise, so I wanted to know if there's an alg that can solve this case:

there aren't any current speedsolving methods that finish with this kind of 'pll', so we don't really have good algs for it, but you can solve it with commutators, and an edge alg.
edge alg: hold the corner in front btw,
F U F' U F U F' U (cycles U layer edges cw)
as for the rest you can use center comms like, again corner in front and U on top.
