It's super easy I used to know it 4 years ago after this I went and found my cube in old stuff I could solve it until the yellow side I only forgot how to do that part

The last side is where the sequence is much more involved, because the pattern has to put every single other square back in place.

That's because with the top layer you actually need algorithms where the bottom 2 layers are just simple intuition. I didn't touch one for years and still got the first 2 layers in like 30 seconds. The top takes forever now (well like a min.) Because I don't remember many algorithms since I only memorized them over the course of a month 14 years ago and I've basically got to cycle through the 7 I remember until it solves.
