He’d be happy to find out that there really is an afterlife, although it doesn’t sound like that good of one. He’d probably try to get as many people into Death’s domain before they’re supposed to die as possible.
Death’s domain is not the afterlife. You can just hang out in Death’s mansion and meet people and stuff. It’s not paradise, but it’s a perfectly fine place to be. The afterlife seems to be some kind of infinite desert where you’re alone for who knows how long until you figure out how to talk to the other people wandering it. It’s also mentioned that the afterlife is what you expect it to be, so if you grew up believing that you’d go to hell for some minor thing you did, sucks to be you.
I wonder how Harry would react to Death as written by Terry Pratchett?

Wait, remind me why it’s good to get into Death’s domain before one is supposed to die?

“This explains why it is so important to shoot missionaries on sight.”
IIRC the desert was the passage to the actual afterlife, and not even Death could cross it.
Was that ever made clear?
