As far as I know this is a McColley’s Finale. It looked the same amount of unwell when I bought it. I removed a bad off leaf, put some worm castings on the soil and bottom watered it with a water/superthrive mix. It’s not looking any better or worse imo, but it’s growing a new leaf. The soil isn’t retaining water, it’s not root bound and I see not pests. What should I do to perk this little one up? Or should I leave it be? Surely they don’t always look like this.
The yellow rings on the one leaf look like a fungal issue. I'd cut that leaf off to be safe. Otherwise give it time to recover from the repot and make sure the new leaf gets enough humidity to unfurl well

If you put fertilizer on top but water from the bottom its a bit counter intuitive. I'd recommend at least mixing them in. These can pretty slow growers as they are self heading and not really vining. I'd say getting a new leaf is promising. And I wouldn't overload it too much.
