I would try bottom-watering. The stem may be staying wet for too long

Next time you repot, I would consider switching the substrate to half soil, half perlite. This will help any excess water to drain away from the stem, but will still hold enough moisture for the roots to drink

Than you so much! I’ll definitely try that!
