Running a Freedombox on a single-board computer (Olimex, Beagle Bone
Black, Raspberry Pi, etc.) makes it relatively easy to host your own
XMPP server:

You can even buy Olimex hardware with Freedombox pre-installed:

I don't have any affiliation with the Freedombox Foundation, I just
really like the project.

Cheers,
DJ
