Mir wurde gesagt, dass es zu weit oben hängt und mehr Sonne braucht? Ich habe es erst gestern bekommen und bin neu bei Pothos. Dieses Fenster gibt ziemlich viel Licht ab. Was meint ihr?

Should be fine. Mine is like 2-3m from a south facing window and will give me like 1-2 new leaves every week in summer. If yours doesn’t grow well or gets leggy you can still try to put it closer to the window
It has plenty of sun for life, I have many of these thriving in far darker areas.
If you just got it yesterday, just wait and see. I’m sure it’s enough light for it to live healthily. Pothos can live just fine under a wide variety of light situations; however, its appearance will change depending on how much light it gets, so “enough” light depends partly on how you want it to look. The more light it gets, the more golden coloring the leaves will develop. So if it’s pretty solid green and you would like to see more gold, increase the light. It’s possible that you could increase in that same spot by getting a macrame or similar hanger, or even just adding a length of chain, to drop the plant down lower in the window.
The size and color of the new leaf growth and length between new nodes will let you know if it is lacking in sunlight. I’d give it two weeks and monitor the new growth, adjust if needed.
Color you want a good green and if it’s really happy it’ll give that variegation.
Size can be compared to the older leaves.
Space between nodes I would look for 2-5inch, beyond that it’s starting to reach for light.
If any don’t meet expectations, I’d give it more light.
In the winter you may need to take it down once in a while and put it on the windowsill for better light. This time of year it should be fine.
No. It’s the perfect amount actually. It should go well for you.
Depends on which way the window faces. South gets the most light and can burn some tropical plants if they are too close to the window. The west, east, north gets the least.
Golden pothos would fit in the meme — too little sun? Golden pothos, just the right amount? Golden pothos. too much sun? Believe it or not, also golden pothos!
