I'm trying to start out self-hosting and was looking for some good servers. I have a budget of ~100 USD and am in the US. I was initially going to get some type of raspberry pi but they seem to always be sold out here

Try the Oracle Cloud free tier. It's the best price you can get for a very beefy server: 4 arm64 cores with 24 GB RAM and 250 GB storage. Just don't put too personal data on there.

Just wanted to add that you also get two free AMD64 servers (1C/1GB). Been using mine for a year now but I do agree - don't use it for anything personal or critical. Make backups!

Yeah they are known to randomly pull them for no reason
