A friend gave me this baby to bring back to life- I am NOT a plant guru but I’m not ready to give up! We haven’t gotten worse since it’s come to me but we’re certainly not getting better. advice? TIA

Monstera take a very long time to grow. Give it time. I'm sure it's working on roots vs pushing out any new leaves.

pretty sure there’s two species of plants in this pot. one looks like monstera deliciosa and the other like raphidophora tetrasperma or “mini monstera”. i think they’re in desperate need of a repot. i’d pot them separately since they have different needs. the monstera honestly looks like it desperately needs attention so i’d recommend repotting as soon as possible
