Are there any serious competitors to Stripe Press?

Question

I'm looking specifically for non-traditional publishers who are still trying to do serious work in the space and/or compete with the best traditional publishers. Basically, analogues to Stripe Press.

I don't know if I'd consider most to be to be direct "competitors" to Stripe Press, but there are tons of independent publishers out there. A few I order from:

https://www.oakknoll.com/oak-knoll-press.php
https://www.foliosociety.com
https://www.nottinghilleditions.com
https://godine.com
What's happening? Are we starting a bookstore or press? I'm down. I've been working on getting something off the ground!

What's special about Stripe Press? What makes it "serious work"? In "the space" -- what space?Stripe seems like a boutique publisher that carefully selects a small number of titles for quality and appeal to a certain audience. But "traditional" publishers like MIT Press, Springer, and Addison-Wesley have put out hundreds of important, high-quality books. With all the signal out there, I don't find it too hard to figure out which ones are the classics that are worth reading.
