Following a spider mite infestation, I had to cut a lot of leaves off of my pothos, and repotted it as well, since then, it’s doing a lot better and is finally getting fuller, but it only seems to be growing on one side. Is there an issue with the way I potted it, or a way I could encourage the plant to grow on the other side as well? I’m fairly new to pothos care so advice would be appreciated, thanks!

There are no cuttings placed here so there wouldn’t be anything growing in this spot. Your plant is still young. You can take cuttings from the long vines, place in water for them to root then pot back into the main plant.

Guessing the afternoon sun would be coming from (pictured) right, where the growth & variegation is thriving? Add the rooted cuttings & rotate occasionally? The cuttings, as mentioned by reddit on point u/Blakabee, will make the biggest difference to bring balance to pothos force. You got this!
*(not sure if i did that right #?anyhow)! The mention?
Rotating your plants so the light hits new spots will help, as well as putting more props in the bare side.
I somehow always plant my pothos looking funny.
