what's the hate for CMake all about? Is CMake really that bad?
Take a look at https://github.com/cppfw/prorab it is a framework for simplifying makefiles, perhaps with it your makefiles will be shorter than CMake files.

prorab: non-recursive GNU make build system
actually, I think what might be reasonable to do is to add a check into prorab.mk that it is run with GNU make. Created issue https://github.com/cppfw/prorab/issues/69

C/C++ build system, I use xmake
same here, plus https://github.com/cppfw/prorab

What testing and project management tools are most used in the industry
In case you decide to go with pure GNU make I can suggest a non-recursive makefiles template library https://github.com/cppfw/prorab.

I am trying to replace CMake with c++
The only thing is that my own build system is GNU make-based, so it's syntax is also not easy :P.

- Make a cross platform build system like Unreal Build Tool

CMake debugger allows you to debug your CMake scripts and more - C++ Team Blog
I've been using https://github.com/ubisoft/Sharpmake and that's been working really nicely. Much saner syntax imho, and covers all my use-cases at least.
- Do any of you use python or another scripting language instead of a build system?

How to Use CMake Without the Agonizing Pain - Part 2
It can get even faster. I already mentioned SharpMake above. It was and is being used by projects with LOC measured in millions and hell knows how many files. It uses globs and runs real fast. Don’t have exact numbers, but I remember that it took about a minute to generate a project and most of that time was spent running a custom build step which I think unfortunately is under NDA, but it wasn’t about project generation. Let’s just say that it processed a lot of data :)
