Sun burn?

I keep it in a darker place though, I’d be surprised.

Hmmm it doesn’t look like you have pest so it could be inconsistent watering. How do you water your plant? Do you water your plant with like a couple cups of water or you completely water it \& let the bottom drain?

I’d say a couple cups of water

I would look at the roots for rot and trim off any unhealthy looking bits of the plant. Then put some extra perlite in the soil and move it to a spot with more light.
