New growth on my Monstera seems to become scorched and turns dark. Is this a result of having too much light or what?

Bright indirect sun is recommended! But i read it could also be not enough watering, just make sure it doesn’t have wet feet!

I agree! This looks more like water/humidity related and not light. Check the soil, roots and moisture in the soil. Maybe it needs to get repotted or the soil is compacted ☺️
