My plan is to target .NET Core. I like the idea of being able to run on cheap Linux instances. Although Xamarin is part of Microsoft, I'm concerned Mono might end up being the red-headed stepchild, with Core getting better company backing. The only thing that sucks is that currently some of the larger cool projects (like Suave and Akka.net aren't ready for Core yet (I think)). So eventually: sweet, short-term might be a couple more headaches.

I agree! In the new scheme of things I'm not sure how Mono fits into the .NET landscape. I was eagerly waiting to get a answer in Changelog's latest episode[0] but sadly they didn't cover this at all.

It's even more confusing that there is absolutely no mention of .NET Core on the language's Github page - http://fsharp.github.io/
