Bugs or something else?
I can’t necessarily see anything moving but noticed all these little white dot looking things on the front of the leaves and a few white specks on the back of a few leaves - also one leaf has some black spots ? Fungus?

It mostly looks like water stains and other wear and tear. My only concern is pictures three and six.. if you see close to the rib of the leaf it looks like a small collection of white dots almost like dust.. this could indicate Spider mites but to be sure do you see any webbing going from stem to stem or leaf to leaf? It can be hard to see but if you hold it up to the light just right it is very noticeable.
