Does anyone know what this is on my peperomia? I’m assuming I’ll have to get rid of her because it’s on most of the leaves but what on earth is it? Doesn’t come off when scrubbing lightly with a towel.

I’m not entirely sure what that is to be honest with you but it can be salvaged. I’d get some rubbing alcohol and a cotton pad or qtip and rub off the residue/pests. You could also use soapy water (dawn dish soap) if you don’t want to use rubbing alcohol. I would also then treat it with a 3 in 1 spray about twice a week.

It looks like thrips

It’s probably plant edema, if you see no pests. Think of it as water blisters created when the plant is taking in more water than it can use. The blisters burst leaving pick marks, scabs or both.  
The bright yellow leaves also shows overwatering in peperomia.
