infohash v2 has been around for years now, and seemingly most modern clients out there support it.

Question is, are people actually using modern clients? This is quick informal survey to see how many actual users could use infohash V2 today if the community moved to using it exclusively.

I know already v1 usage is way higher than v2 usage, especially on private trackers and on the mainline BitTorrent DHT. But I'm wondering more about what's supported, rather than what is currently most used.

Alternatively, if you don't know if your client supports infohash v2, please share your client + version number and I could figure that out from there :)
