been trying to find a Raspberry Pi 4, but they're sold out everywhere
anyone knows where can I buy one?
Discussion
I was looking a couple months ago. Saw some on eBay but quite expensive
ye, the price tag on the Raspberry Pi 4 is ridiculous atm
also looking into alternatives for it
You may want to check out Orange Pi 5.
Runs on linux (e.g. ubuntu) and you can easily install e.g. umbrel on it.
Have opted to Orange Pi5 for the same reason and it works perfect.

If you're wanting it for a Bitcoin node, id strongly encourage getting a refurbished computer like an off lease Dell and building with that. An i3 will be just as good if not better, and an i5 CPU will dominate compared to a pi. Plus you can have more memory, stable power, and faster disk I/O.
Pi is great when the cost is reasonable but no good reason to overpay for it's performance unless you absolutely need that platform and smaller form factor.
valid points
