Propagating Pothos Ivy - should it be planted horizontally? Or vertically?

I had a pothos ivy that someone left behind at my place when they moved out. It was dying, so I chopped it up and propagated it in water, but only 1 stalk is showing potential

It seems to be growing leaves from very bottom of the stalk and the nodes in between. I think it's ready to be planted. Should I just stick it vertically into soil? Or can it go in horizontally, since I maybe each node could become its own plant?

It's weird that there are leaves popping out even below the roots, that's why I'm thinking maybe it could be lain horizontally.

I'm in Denver, which is Zone 5b, but this would be an indoor plant that gets a fair amoutn of sun over summer.

Any advice? Thanks in advance!!
