Do major ISPs still ignore IP spoofing?

I was reading this question:

Why don’t ISPs filter on source address to prevent spoofing?

and based on those answers, ISPs ignore it because of the overhead of checking for spoofing.

But that question is a bit old so I wanted to check if any development has been happening?

I just don’t understand why it’s so hard for ISPs to implement the first hops to check if the source IP is valid and record the given IP by the DHCP server for checking the validness of the IP? how can it be a big overhead?

For example, if someone starts spoofing a lot of IPs and does malicious activity like DDoS, will major ISPs detect it or they still don’t check?

In fact at this point it’s something of a running joke, certainly we must have seen an Arduino or Raspberry Pi shoehorned into every type of consumer gadget ever built by this point. But if you thought this would be another example of that common trope by the headline, you might be in for something of a surprise.
