Any idea what these spots mean? They are on a pothos that is typically only watered when dry and is in a ceramic pot with an attached drainage tray. The plant seems to be growing well, but just has a few leaves that these spots have popped up on.

Looks like it could be an infection!

Looks fungal. You can use a fungicide and add peroxide for the next watering.

Mine does that when I water to often. I snip them off and cut back on the water
