I think it's not that easy to set up my own Mastodon server. So far, the easiest method is YunoHost script installation. The downside of this method is that it does not use Docker, so Mastodon isn't just one software; it's many. The textual outputs on the SSH terminal overwhelm me, which is why I dislike installing Mastodon myself.

There are docker based alternatives to #yunohost. I have been meaning to put together a list. The advantage of all these solutions is you not only get a Mastodon (or Friendica ) server for friends amd family but also can easily add Nextcloud, Jellyfin and a heap of other useful software.
