I think unfortunately this is true. But it's a chicken and egg problem. F# won't get more attention unless more people use it.
JVM developers seem to be much more open-minded than .NET developers for whatever reason. As someone who thinks F# is a much nicer language than Scala (the best JVM statically-typed, functional language) it's quite frustrating.

The reason is that C# is a better language than Java, so there is less pain and less reasons to move away to a newer language.
