It is an excellent language, and a joy to develop in. Works on linux, linq to objects is nice, it has good reflection and decent pattern matching and good ide support. But the library ecosystem is terrible. Imagine starting out web development by looking for alternatives to Entity framework and asp.net core or whatever they have now. ML is sparse, financial libraries are sparse, dataframes, vectorized arithmetic, very hard to find something that works in all .net versions.
