I'm a fan. I've used it in both business and personal settings, and were it not for F#, I'd still likely have active personal projects that use it. They've made some nice improvements to it over the past 5 years or so -- an easier async programming model, and the ability to write in a more functional style.

Even if you eventually choose a different language, if you're going to be targeting .NET Framework or .NET Core, it's at least worth learning to read. Microsoft is getting better about including C#/VB.NET/F# examples in their docs, but there will always be a C# example. There is also a lot of information in the community that applies to the ecosystem, but the example on how to consume it is usually in C#.
