There is 128MB of NAND and 8GB of eMMC… so does that mean one version is very barebones and the other version is feature-rich?

No. All versions have all features, the thing is that OpenWrt is modular and you can install thousands of packages from the repository just like in any Linux system. I would go with eMMC or an external SD card and call it a day. The advantage of the SD card is that it is easily replaceable.

Here is a detailed comparison of each storage and use cases: forum.banana-pi.org/t/…/4.

This is the BPI-R3 mini board I was referring to

Check this post here, apparently the BPi guys already provided a bunch of their own builds for the board. Eventually you’ll get an “official” OpenWrt image. It seems to be out of stock tho.
