I don't think so? Comcast is the largest ISP and fully supports IPv6, as does Spectrum and AT&T. All mobile carriers support IPv6, TMobile is IPv6-only. Starlink is IPv6 too.

Triply so if they're on Fiber.

The US is a bit over 50%.¹ I'd attribute any recent growth to Verizon finally deploying IPv6 on FiOS (after 2 decades). But I think that's going to be it for growth. Every wireline ISP who was at-all willing to deploy IPv6 has.
The rest of them are effectively IPv6-Never-Evers. Our 1 cable ISP (spectrum) offers it. None of our fiber providers do (Frontier, WideOpenWest, T-Mobile, Optyx, Evolution). Given how new fiber deployments seem to be IPv6-adverse, I wouldn't be surprised to see a bit of contraction over the next year or so.
I've posted elsewhere here that I'd relentlessly bugged my provider to deploy their IPv6. They have a /40 allocated. Or had. They just ditched it. Which I guess was their way of telling me to stop asking.
Yes. For a while now. Actually to my detriment because TM hotspot users are usually IPv6 only. Which is a real issue for me. When I'm on a hotspot, my customers are unreachable to me. I can't VPN into them because 5 of 6 wireline ISP here are IPv4 only.

ex: T-Mobile fiber rollout is IPv4-only and CGNAT.

Conversely, their mobile network is the only 100% – or near 100% – IPv6.
