INK for HP Latex

I saw the photo below on FB market place which had me wondering. Do you all use HP latex original inks for your latex printers?
Ink is obviously a huge cost just wondering if anyone uses a duplicate. Obviously something that wouldn't compromise the printer.

In the early days latex Ink sucked and didn't last nearly as long as solvent. I think latex ink is harder to reproduce, so we never looked at aftermarket.. no point in saving a few bucks if the ink isn't as good UV wise and ends up fading after a year..

The only aftermarket ink I would consider is from a reputable company like nazdar... And I'm not sure they make latex ink. Stay away from all the cheap Chinese brands with no quality control

They posted a picture of the 792 inks HP dropped a few years ago. They/HP don't sell them or make them anymore.

I mean, if you're already buying non-OEM 792 printheads then why not trust the ink they supply as well?

FWIW, I always use original inks.
Have tried quite a few non-original inks and toners over the years but they have always made me disappointed in one way or another.
