Hey, I have a neglected plant I'm trying to revive, any tips or is it too far gone?

This appears to be a pothos but I could be wrong. Either way, the below suggestion should work.

If I were getting this plant from someone else and knew nothing about it, I'd cut all the stems leaving 1-3 nodes on them stem and at least one leaf (if you can) and I'd put them all in water. Wait a few weeks and when you have 2" or longer roots, get a pot that has drainage holes, get new indoor potting soil, plant your plant in said soil, and place it in bright indirect light.

As far as care, I stick my finger in the soil every few days and when it's dry 1-2" down (for an average pot size nothing super tiny or huge) I'll water the plant over my sink making sure to water it very deeply.
