Agree with other comments, back then MS invested a lot in C# while there was then way more VB users, now it should invest a lot on F# while there are way more C# users.

C# isn't going to dwindle because F# expands, if F# expands C# wins because F# has ability to appeal to developers on non .net platforms, where C# isn't seen as appealing, and F# has ability to bring outstanding projects and idioms to .net eco-system.

Take the returns on investment made with C# all those years and invest a fair share in F#.

The main reasons F# is not picking up have been stated, and I face this situation at my work where my use of F# is put on hold because Microsoft is not investing in it much and my colleagues have the feeling C# is "good enough" which is very short sighted perspective.
