Any guides on how to host at home? I’m always afraid that opening ports in my home router means taking the heavy risk of being hacked. Does using something like CloudFlare help? I am a complete beginner.

Why not? Openssh has proven itself to be reasonable secure. Porbably more research went into its security then most apps you are hosting.
I think it’s not so much “insecure” as that it’s that external SSH access is less secure than no access. And for home-managed systems exposed externally, I would recommend a smaller attack area.
