Is it useful to have your own mail server as a non-business? Just a private person. Configure SMTP and IMAP for it, sync with outlook I think.

Yay or nay, waste of time? What are your thoughts?

I do. But the domain I use it for is occasional sending. If it was for my job/business probably not.

I do not notice any delivery problems though. What you will need aside from DKIM/SPF, is a static IP and the ability to create reverse dns records.

I have Comcast business and I was surprised they did the reverse dns for me, but it has been working great. I get 10/10 on mail-tester.com.
