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

Look for some refurbished thinclients or use a second-hand laptop. If needed upgrade it with a SSD.
Something like this my only question is do you have to use the HP firmware or can you just run Linux on it?
just make sure you get something with intel or amd cpu. some very old thin clients used via.
You can easily install Linux on it. I actually have that exact model, but the CPU is a bit weak for most stuff.
