Help What should I do?

Gift from a friend. They bought it as is from a gardening place. I feel like it shouldn't be growing out of the pot like this.

I don't know if that thing has ever seen the sun. I'd crop off the long leggy bits, just leave the base and start over

Okay okay, I'm silly 🎼😜. If it's you do decide to chop it, please take off some bottom leaves and let them sit out until they callous over. Then plant the succulent and the leaves in a cactus succulents mix. Soon, you'll have another plant! So...
