My experience is that, compared to most functional languages, F# has a great IDE experience in Rider, Visual Studio and VS Code. But when compared to big industry focused languages, like C# and Java, tooling is middling at best.
Ironically, despite .NET core being an excellent runtime, it suffers stigma from being assumed to be too tied to Microsoft platforms. This means, depending on your angle, F# lacking specialized ties to the Windows specific tooling you mention need not be considered a disadvantage.
