No one here questions whether it's the real thing.

My question is whether it is in customary use, with higher frequency than
SS, in all-caps text where there is nothing holding the
authors/publishers/producers/advertisers back from using it.

What I have been able to find so far points to some use, but less use than
SS or ß.
I am looking forward to convincing evidence of the opposite.
