True in the sense that Scala has a magnitude higher number of repos, commercial adoption, libraries, than F# (while being much closer to ML than F# in a few important was).
Whoops, my bad, the only faint idea about ML I do have is as the "MotherLode" from what I know of modern-day F# / Haskell --- never looked at Scala so far
That then should be the actual answer to OP's question
