I personally think MIDI 2.0 is a lost cause. Part of the reason is, as I understand it, is that a sysex id is mandatory with Midi 2.0 and you need to pay for it.
The Roland A-88MKII - released five years ago - is the only hardware product I know of that supports Midi 2.0.
Meanwhile, OSC is royalty free and does a lot of what Midi 2.0 does. OSC exists today in a wide range of Hardware such as several Berhinger mixers.
In the Linux world of course the OSC support is stellar in Ardour and the command line, as I use it.
Actually, one of my goals for the year is to add OSC support to a fork of OpenCamera so I can control the stop / start buttons of multiple phone cameras synced with timecode instead of all that phone display swiping and button pressing.
My other lost cause is expensive video cameras since they deprecate too quickly - about 5 years - in terms of looking dated and 3 or more cameras add up, as I grudgingly look to use phone cameras. You can reuse the lens if you plan right but could still get screwed like the deprecated canon e mount.

I believe it's already in ALSA. It's definitely in Pipewire.

I lack any hardware that supports more than MIDI 1.
