There is a need for F#, but the reality is that it will never be needed or used as much as C# is.
The problem with F# devs is that they can't/won't shut up about how great their language is and constantly ask/shame/berate other .NET devs with "why not convince your boss to use it on your next project?" or "can't you see how much better F# is compared to every other .NET language?"
By what measure is it better, exactly? Fewer/no nulls (a pipe dream in a world of C# interop?) The use of whitespace?
These devs ignore the very real issues of peer buy-in, the need to support the language down the road in the company you write it in, the skill makeup of the devs on your team, the local market for finding devs even willing to do F#... the list goes on and on.
F# is a great language. Just stop trying to shove it down our throats, F# devs. We hear you.
Programming work that no one else wants to do, to the tune of $750k/year in annual revenue with one employee and one contractor. Think semi-legacy, like old-ish Java (but not as bad).
I'll always take a good opportunity to shit on Mozilla. I was disgusted when Eich was outed and still am. Haven't used a Mozilla product since.
What is happening to them now is a function of poor management and even poorer judgment. It's what happens when you solely rely on a cash cow and fail to innovate meaningfully.
This all fucking day. The worst part of this industry is the entitlement and straight up lack of gratitude for your position. It's taken for granted.
