unfortunately I think cut it off :/ so sad but it’ll mold at the stem if you don’t take it off. I tried propping mine up, and that worked for a while but just had to give up :(

Do you cut it at the base or where it folded?

At the base

Personally I let the plant decide what it wants if it desires to kill it or keep it is up to my plants typically they will make the decision best for them I only intervene if it’s a sensitive plant or the dead is basically the entire leaf if you want to cut in my experience I try to cut as close to the base of the affected part as possible as the plant will keep green healthy for a while and won’t kill off a damaged part for a while
