I was a new plant owner when I first got it and had no idea I should rotate it, which is how I ended up with it this lopsided. Should have pruned it then but was too intimidated, so instead ended up using ties to try to get it to go vertical again, and… yeah. I’m hoping it’s better late than never. How do I get this back on track?

I would chop it back to the bare stem (below where it forks) and put it somewhere where it gets better light. It’ll regrow over time. Prop the top cuttings into new plants.
Go for it. I’d prune the very tip off the smaller branches (or it will likely do the same thing) and then cut the longer one back in length to match the shorter one.
Please consider moving the plant over so it’s in front of the window? This isn’t a shade tolerant plant and it’d do much better if it got proper light.
