Is it possible to disable access to the website without logging in, forcing users to log in to see the homepage? However, in that case, search engine robots will not see the page, new topics, and they will not be indexed. Is there a way to solve this, or am I mistaken?

No. If you allow search engines to see something, and block guests simultaneously, Google (and others too I believe?) will penalize your site in results.

I wonder sometimes how news sites get ranked and indexed behind pay walls. Completely unfair in my opinion.
