Bond between Flourine and Hydrogen is very strong because of very high electronegativity difference. That is why Flourine doesn't let Hydrogen go easily. So extent of donating H+ in is low in HF that is why it is considered weak acid.

Hydroflouric acid is a weak acid partly because of hydrogen bonding.

Fluorine has high affinity for hydrogen, and the H-F bond is quite difficult to break
