The better question would be "If you are a startup not tied to a linux stack would you use .NET (Not necessarily core)."
.NET Core is definitely not ready for prime time. It will be eventually. I believe many are confusing what solution is correct for the job.
Most startups are not going to be purchasing hardware for a hosted solution but instead will use cloud servers ala azure or aws heck even google cloud. .NET is supported on all of them.
.NET has great tool, is now open source both standard and core, widely supported, and unless you plan on running linux or mobile then why not?
