espressobin is currently #90 on the openwrt table of hardware for single board computers you linked.

personally I'd way rather have a system that boots a good Debian rather than openwrt, & the espressobin will fair many times better/be much easier than many of these openwrt-centric alternatives. and it will happily run openwrt too. this line of chips from Marvell has done a good job over the years keeping good upstream/mainline kernel & u-boot support. whereas openwrt often good es out of itcs way with out of tree patches to support all kinds of difficult hardware environments.



Number of SBCs listed there boot debian as well.

My suggestion wasn't a debian vs OpenWrt one, But rather a 'If you like OpenWrt, then you got SBC options too'.
