If you're in the Python, Clojure, Erlang, Haskell playground, you'd like F#. Also, clojure and scala on .NET are pretty quiet now (e.g. (I believe) they both still do type erasure on CLR just to conform with JVM), but the potential is huge.

I am a pythonista who is learning Clojure and Erlang and I really didn't like F# that much.

That and the threat of relying on any patent Microsoft may use against me in the future scares me away from anything that comes from Redmond.
