I have this plant that's leaning to one side due to the weight of its healthy new leaves, rather than a lack of sunlight—I've been rotating it every time I water. It used to not get enough light, which is why the lower leaves have fallen off. I'm wondering if I should stake the trunk to straighten it up, try to propagate it, or if the trunk is too woody for that? Also, could I train a pothos to climb its trunk? I'm really unsure about the best way to make it look its best!

It sounds like staking would be a good move since it could help support the trunk while it grows. If it's leaning a lot, you could use a soft tie to avoid damaging the plant. As for propagation, if the trunk is woody, it might be tricky, but you can still try taking cuttings from the healthy parts. Training a pothos to climb could be a fun idea! It really depends on how much you want to experiment.
Definitely stake it! I had a similar issue where my plant was leaning and a stake worked wonders for me. Just make sure to secure it gently. Also, I don’t think the trunk is too woody for propagation; you can always give it a shot! It’s not too late to train a pothos either; they love to climb!
