F# leads the way and C# slowly catches up, as always. Yet for some reason, C# still gets all the mindshare.

Haskell, OCaml, Erlang lead the way and Rust, Zig and Go get all the mindshare. I feel like its a common pattern for more experimental languages to pioneer features and other languages to copy the features and bring them to a C style syntax that the majority of devs are familiar with.

What types of problems are better solved in F# than C#?

Is having a combination of F# and C# in a single codebase possible? Is it recommended?
