As someone else already pointed out, this is incorrect. Installing the .NET SDK is how you install C# and F#, and both the C# and F# language versions are tied to .NET versions. Since .NET has LTS releases, so do C# and F#.
My original comment already addressed why I mentioned Ubuntu. I didn't claim it was a programming language, and it doesn't matter that it isn't. In fact, that was the point of mentioning it.

Having an LTS release doesn't mean that it doesn't get any bug or security fixes. It normally just means that it doesn't get new features.
