Discombobulated

Hello, Kennet's Dad here. This puzzle was my first CtC feature. When it was featured 2 years ago, I had no idea how to use this website, so I'm publishing it on its two-year anniversary. Watch Mark's solve.
Rules:
- Normal sudoku rules apply.
- Digits cannot repeat in corresponding box positions (i.e., disjoint subsets).
- Digits along an arrow must sum to the digit in that arrow's circle.
- A purple line contains a series of consecutive digits in any order.
- Digits in a cage sum to the number in the top left corner of that cage.
I have a YouTube channel where I discuss and analyze literature and poetry. And please consider a free subscription to my novel.
Solution code: row 5, left to right, no spaces

Decided to try this before watching the video and found it on the more difficult side, at least a 3.
Of course, the video showed me a way to solve in half the time since I had missed one of the points he made right at the beginning about 7s.
A lot of fun in any case.

the difficulty is only level 2 if you instantly hit on the critical feature. otherwise, you will wander around for a long time, developing information slowly
