I'm an even worse investment; I don't buy HP products and will tell anyone who asks to avoid them. This has been true for over a decade.

Unfortunately, their MBA probably never told them to measure the cost of a bad reputation.

Their CEO Enrique Lores looks to have made around $20M a year since 2019, not counting 2020 where he only made $6M.

At ~$66M he probably doesn't need to care about long-term reputation.

If that sentiment is common, perhaps HP should be dropping out of the consumer printer market.

(I'm in the same boat: I've heard so much about their anti-consumer practices with printers over the years, I wouldn't even consider other products even if those practices didn't carry over.)
