I’m new to plants and got this clipping of a pothos from a friend. How does it look? Any suggestions?

Looks good! Keep it warm and in bright indirect light. I use SuperThrive liquid plant vitamins to help boost the roots. Good luck🍀🪴

You can actually break that section into two plants. The bigger nubs where a new leaf emerges on the stem will become a root and the smaller ones will form the new plant foliage. Just keep the leaves out of the water

Agreed. I would chop this to propagate two vines from this cutting.
