NanoPi R3S-LTS vs Zero 2 vs OPi Zero 3W - Better solution for VLESS + STA/AP?

Hey,

Looking for a small board to run a VLESS server and also do WiFi in STA + AP mode at the same time.

Currently considering:

  • NanoPi R3S-LTS (1GB)
  • NanoPi Zero 2 (1GB)
  • Orange Pi Zero 3W (1GB)

Main priorities:

  • Stable VLESS (Xray)
  • Good concurrent STA + AP support
  • 24/7 reliability
  • Preferably decent community support

Which one would you pick for this, or is there a better option in the same size/price range?

Thanks!
