American here, I've had IPv6 on literally every device I've had for almost a decade now. Every mobile provider has been v6 since LTE. Comcast migrated to v6 over a decade ago because they exhausted 10.0.0.0/8 in their control plane network (they have a lot of cable modems). And I'm on Google Fiber now which is all v6.
There's probably a few other ISPs that need a good kick to the groin in the US, but the general feeling I get here is that the real stragglers in v6 deployment are other countries. Indeed, looking at Google's IPv6 map[0] it's all countries in Africa and the Middle East that have the worst v6 adoption. It's places where there isn't enough demand for addressing to make CGNAT unviable and IPv6 necessary.
