The AWS Cognito User Pool Authentication Flow utilizes an augmented PAKE (SRP). I imagine there are a number of major sites that use Cognito along with the SRP auth flows baked into their std libs. I know I've used it a number of times.

I implemented SRP a decade ago — it has issues, and thus a lot of revisions. It also leaks your salt and you can’t use a pepper. There is Opaque (see the play on PAKE! but it’s new and difficult to search for).
