Some relevant notes/links shared by the team:

• Microsoft has removed SharePoint public sites as an official offering. Instead, they suggest getting a public website from a third-party provider, such as GoDaddy or WiX.
• As Sharon mentions, you can also make a SharePoint site public by navigating to site settings, selecting site permissions, modifying permission levels, adding anonymous access, and saving changes.
