Thank you for this very scientific answer.

I think it might have started with younger/small leaves, some of them became fully yellow. (https://freeimage.host/i/HyL5TB9)

But only the older ones have the necrosis.

There was a lack of water during hollyday, then too much water to compensate. But it started showing small signs before that. I'll try the fertilizer

Your plant is also stretching. It needs light.

First and foremost get it in front of bright, indirect sunlight and get it some liquid fertilizer. Honestly anything will help at this point. Make sure to dilute fertilizer or you will end up with nutrient burn.
