I’d like to have my own server at home sorta like a home AWS.

How to set up one and make it available to anyone over the Internet? What tech specs should I buy (RAM, CPU, # of cores, operating system, etc.)?

How much does it cost to keep one running all the time?

    People who deploy professionally / on scale / create customs images for other things are tech savvy enough and know how to disable SSH - no need to have it disabled by default.

    I think you’ve solved your own problem. The people that are savvy enough to do it know how to enable it and it’s not a real impact to them. But by disabling it, the people that don’t are protected. Which is why this is a standard practice across Linux distros.

      It could be standard practice across Linux distros but not standard across SBCs…
