I can sterilize a used syringe found on the street for repeat use but recommend you just keep walking if you find an HP printer.

A free printer saved from becoming waste is a free printer saved from becoming waste, I'm not leaving it behind. The poor printer has no fault that their creators are so evil.

I got a 2013-ish LaserJet from the street, it just needed a better aftermarket cartridge (the one installed was partially clogged and partially leaking but thankfully only on thw paper). Of course, I disabled all its outgoing traffic with a firewall rule.

What printer brand do you recommend for use with Linux?

Usually everyone tells about how amazing Brother printers are in every HP thread. But yes, to answer your question: Brother Laser Printers.
I have 3, there have been rumors that the newer models have moved to DRM for their toner cartridges. But I have yet to confirm this.
Linux sees all the brother printers on my network and can print to all of them without issue.
-
I've had an Epson EcoTank printer for a few years now, and have never had trouble printing from Linux. And the ink is orders of magnitude cheaper than cartridge-based printers.
-
do brother printers play well with linux? I've had two b/w laserjets for the last 20 years. one at work, one at home. bought them both 20 years ago, they still work great. can still network (computer to wifi router to router to printer. the place i live was wired with cat 5 already when we moved in I WAS SO LUCKY) print on both of them too.

I have a Brother laser printer and an Epson ink tank. They both work fine with Linux. I had to install some drivers but that was largely painless.

100% Brother. The driver support is phenomenal. I could easily set up a scan pipeline so that when I just press a button on the printer, it scans the document and sends it to my server. There in gets processed in a few ways before it's placed on my NAS. Very nerdy and very convenient. I love it.

My HP printer from 1998 is working just fine, I got it off the street.

...especially when it's a stolen repost on a fringe version of Reddit about a used printer.

The fact that this is necessary is infuriating

My HP laser all-in-one works better with PS than using the app. I was worried when I switched to Linux but it's way easier and usually never fails to print or scan
-
PS is Photoshop? How'd you get that working on Linux? I was going to give up using Lightroom and finding an open source alternative.

I've really gotten into crossword puzzles lately and the title so, so reminds me of a crossword clue. Love it.

I remember seeing this on reddit like 5 years ago.
Does this mean my meme folder is fair game too?

Not wholesome.
HP should not be locking features of a printer. You should be able to just do a factory reset and have everything usable.
