I finally figured out why my pothos kept getting leggy—I was way too nervous about watering it

I finally figured out why my pothos kept getting leggy—I was way too nervous about watering it! Turns out mine actually wants more frequent waterings than I thought, especially since my place gets pretty warm and dry. Now that I'm checking the soil more often, the new growth is so much bushier. Has anyone else found their pothos thrives with more attention than the "neglect it and it'll survive" narrative suggests?
