Thats besides the growing number using Meson instead.

CMake is the most used build system for C++. Meson doesn't even register. CMake is also 6th fastest growing language on github : https://fossbytes.com/fastest-growing-languages-in-2018-gith...

Meson seems to be more of a thing in certain Linux circles (e.g. Gnome/Freedesktop, but not KDE), but outside of that CMake seems reign supreme.

Meson is hardly used outside GNU/Linux.
