Very impressed with the GDAL development team - again :) Reported a weird issue/possible bug on the mailing list at 12:19, got a message with a PR containing a fix at 14:06 - pretty impressive.
You'd never get this sort of speed from commercial software, and in fact it is GDAL that is behind a lot of that commercial software anyway.
I donate semi-regularly to GDAL, and am considering becoming an official sponsor (through my self-employment setup) - I'd encourage you to do the same.

{vrtility} now has fancy cloud masking! Check out the vignette here: https://permian-global-research.github.io/vrtility/articles/OmniCloudMask.html
Check out the improvement of a median composite when using CloudOmniMask!
The ability to have image processing - included directly in a file format still blows my mind a bit! woop for VRT pixel functions!

Okay - further to my early rants about CDSE data, it aint as bad as I thought 
it also prompted me to properly sort out my approach to scaling/offsets which had been driving me mad! So if anyone cares for another way to download data from CDSE, with #rspatial / #gdal I made a gist:

There are still some improvements to be made for sure.

{vrtility} gets its first vignette - how to make HLS composites. I think this example really starts to show how awesome the VRT format can be and how much we can do with it! #rstats #rspatial #gdal
https://permian-global-research.github.io/vrtility/articles/HLS.html
WIP pkgdown site now up for {vrtility} https://permian-global-research.github.io/vrtility/
Managed to iron out a good few bugs and a bit more parallel stuff so it's starting to come together
