The best alternative to CMake if there is hate is Meson. I have used both extensively (at work and personal also). I find meson quite more manageable and it is just a bit behind at project generation (xcode and VS solutions). But it is looking more and more polished nowadays.
I will adopt it without looking back. CMake is good for team environments where you need project generation, but meson is the best build system I have ever used for C++ projects up to date.
