Hi all! My pothos has grown a lot, and it’s doing well in general. But I noticed for the first time, this one yellow leaf. I plucked it off the plant. Is my plant okay? I was checking other leaves for problems and saw two other leaves with sparse brown spots on them, I’ve attached a photo of one of them.

Some yellowing of the older leaves is normal as the plant focuses energy on new growth. The brown spots just look like mechanical damage; maybe from being moved, transported, falling etc. Nothing to worry about here!

Few things to consider.  
The pot looks quite small, have you checked the roots? How light does that window get as they don’t like direct sun. How often do you water? The soil looks quite dark. In general GP are quite hardy but they will let you know when they’re not.

I plan on checking the roots this weekend, to see whether or not I need to repot! I just watered the plant after taking this photo, hence the dark soil. My apt faces north, so it gets indirect light all day while sitting in the window.

Hopefully not too serious then.
