The Eastern Orthodox nor Greek Catholics who are under for that matter use the term purgatory, but their beliefs amount to the same thing.

It comes down to a matter of terminology. I might add that Rome doesn’t require Eastern Catholics to believe in superogatory works, etc.

Besides the whole notion of imputed righteousness is a 16th century innovation.

We Orthodox believe that all persons who die go to a place of repose. Until the judgement.
