I found a pothos on Facebook marketplace for $5 and am considering buying it to experiment with propagating. There’s a decent amount of leafless nodes but I’m pretty new to house plants and propagation. Is it worth it at least for the experience or not?

Sure why not. 5 bucks is a small pride to pay for an education 😉
Yeah do it! That’s dozens of future plants
Chop inbetween each node n stick em in water
Prop
The pot is at least worth 5 bucks
I did this to a similar office plant that was being given away. Several people wanted it, but I was the only one who knew how to take care of it. Chopped it up, propagated every piece, repot once rooted, and gave everyone some “new” plants. I kept the extras and had a new beautiful bushy pothos.
