So is Stellar like a decentralized version of Ripple?

I was looking at the Stellar project and it seems very similar to Ripple except for the following:
- Stellar is decentralized
- Open source
- Non profit (Ripple being for profit)

Apparently one of the original founders of Ripple was fired and started Stellar as a result and now receives a percentage of Ripple earnings which helps fund Stellar.

What are your opinions on Stellar?
