There is a lot of leaf curling. How is your watering? Have you used a flashlight and magnifying glass to see if there are pests on the underside of the leaves?

No pests..water when dry..

I keep mine with a humidifier also under a grow light.

Yes they need high humidity

I’m also seeing a lot of comments on Reddit that this could be a fungus. Many people treating with copper fungicide…..here was one answer:

Ohhhhhh, philodendrons gonna philodendron. My imperial red was doing this. Every new leaf came out like this until I treated with a copper fungicide spray. I don't know if that's what fixed it, but if you look up spots on upright philodendrons like this, it's pretty common.

Which made me start thinking about my BEAUTIFUL Red Congo in my office that has a few spots like these……
