i want to remotely ssh to my home server, and I was wondering if I could just forward port 22 with disabling password login and use pubkey authentication will be safe enough?

I agree entirely. The box I have this on is my piddle-around server. A long time ago I used to administer a medium-sized cluster of Linux boxes and they were all cert auth, and I wouldn’t have had it any other way. Mostly, I think it’s fun to see what usernames and passwords the scripts and bots and hackers try on my neutered SSH.
