Not at all. For starter Stripe is only usable if you are a small US company selling to a US user base. It also restricts your audience to customers with a card and willing to enter it on your website.

It's better than nothing but it's in no way comparable to what steam offers.

That's a dramatic misrepresentation. Source: operated startup selling to LATAM customers, used Stripe.
Lyft uses stripe, I wouldn’t consider them small.
