I have had this pothos for 20+ years. The top has leaves as well as the bottom of the vine but in the middle there are no leaves. I need suggestions on what I should do. Should I repot or cut the vines and propagate them first?

First of all. Kudos on 20 years. That’s amazing. I would take cuttings. Then cut back the mother plant to allow her to reset and flourish
