Not 6E but the GLINet Flint 2 runs a flavour of OpenWrt 23.05.
I own the original Flint and I have been really happy with it. It's has a "fisher price" mode for most people; but then you can also log into Luci and really tinker under the hood.
I have the Flint 2. I'm only using it as a dumb AP and managed switch but the wireless performance has been a significant step up over previous APs and routers I've owned, even if it doesn't support 6E. And it comes with a couple of 2.5GbE ports so you can integrate it with a 2.5GbE LAN and use with a 2.5GbE+ internet connection (not that it's very common yet).
To OP: the firmware is in its early days (both stock and snapshot openwrt) so you may run into problems with some use cases.
