Can you give us a few updated photos close up of the soil and a fuller picture of the window it’s sitting in? That will help us tell you more.

How much light is it getting?  
How often are you watering and is the soil dry?

It looks like its either overwatered or underwatered. But its seems overwatered more. Have you got some cuttings you can take from the plant? If it were me i would start over. Prop a bunch of leaves with nodes , stick in water or spaghnum moss and grow another cebu blue pothos!

lots of sun 6 plus hours

It could be insufficient light and/or watering inconsistencies.

Place it where filtered sunlight hits the top at least 6 hours a day. Water only after the soil dries out.

Cut back the vines to give the root system a break. Cut off most of it. Propagate the cuttings.

Fertilize at least once a month. Cebu Blue pothos do well when everything is in balance. 🪴🍀
