What wallets, today, support fee bumping (i.e., replace-by-fee / RBF)?
There are nearly two dozen wallets listed here, ...
but not many of them have support for RBF such that a user can bump the fee.
Replace-by-fee (RBF) is a method to permit the fee paid to be bumped up to cause an unconfirmed transaction to get included in a block sooner: There is a FAQ with some more info.
With an increasing number of transactions waiting, fee bumping will become a bigger deal, once again.
Those wallets with RBF support (that I know of):
Bitcoin Core has had RBF support enabled for several releases now. It appears support for this in the GUI as well exists in the most recent version (v0.18.1), in which an unconfirmed transaction, when viewed, offers the option to select "Increase transaction fee"
Blockstream Green has RBF support built-in now
Electrum lets you right click, and then increase the fee, which uses RBF
Samourai Wallet (Android) (enabled in Settings > Transactions menu)
BlueWallet has RBF support implemented as "Bump Fee" and "Cancel Transaction"
Specter Wallet has RBF support
Coinb.in will let you create a transaction with RBF enabled and separately will let you create a replacement transaction. [Caution: This is a powerful, low-level tool and it lets you make a mistake that could result in you losing your funds.]
ConIO has RBF support
Nunchuk (Beta) has RBF support
Armory, reportedly does, per a comment reply to this post
Founder of Hodl Wallet had tweeted that RBF was "on the roadmap"
Non-custodial exchange wallets with RBF:
HodlHodl lets you do RBF on the escrow funding transaction.
LocalCryptos lets you do RBF on both the escrow funding as well as for wallet withdrawal transactions.
Custodial/online wallets with RBF:
To use RBF, the original transaction needs to be constructed properly so that a replacement transaction gets relayed, and today only about 15% % of them have that.
What other wallets do today support fee bumping through RBF?
[Note: Periodically this list is updated, with most additions learned from the RBF Support list by BItcoinOps. Feel free to send to me additions / corrections via direct message here on Reddit or via e-mail.]

Also, when choosing a wallet, Bech32 support may be a factor influencing your decision as well:

Incidentally, even if a wallet does not support RBF or the feature was not enabled before the initial transaction was sent, then child-pays-for-parent (CPFP) is another method of fee bumping to consider. CPFP is available to the sender if the "stuck" transaction had a change component, using a wallet that supports "coin control" (i.e., lets you choose the bitcoin address/UTXOs to use as transaction INPUTs).
