I use Dapper with F# both on Mono/Linux (test/prod) and on Windows (dev/build/test) and it works great and I've never had an OS porting issue in three years. There are extensions that make it more composable, but haven't needed them yet. Type safe solutions, in terms of using code expressions that get translated into SQL, exist too. However everywhere I look people complain about how horribly inefficient and frequently buggy the generated SQL is. This is true in LINQ, EF, Scala's SQL generator, etc. Stackoverflow obviously created Dapper for a reason. So I've thus far avoided these "too clever by half" solutions; Dapper is perfectly fine.
