It's likely you do use Mono or a successor. The modern dotnet framework is a descendent of Mono and is used in a variety of websites, games, and other applications.

Only in spirit, other than trimming, Mono AOT for Xamarin and Blazor, there is hardly much left, and very few use Xamarin.Android/iOS.
IIRC, Mono's base class library was also used to fill the cross-platform gaps in .NET Core 2-3 back when they ported the Framework APIs they had removed for Core 1. I don't know how much of that remains though.
Thankfully I don't use Mono or anything related to dotnet framework.
