I responded that there is. Namely that it's better.

Meson is winning just fine, given that every new C project I find these days seems to be using it. None of these projects are gnome-specific either, btw. This strawman of meson developers / users feeling insecure is entirely of your construction (and ironic).

Nothing stops its developers from improving it now. But my biggest problem with cmake is not the missing features (there aren't any) but the absolute PITA macro-hell syntax, and I doubt there's anything they can improve in that regard.
