How Self-Hosting with Homecloud Transformed Rajesh’s Family Life

From Paper Chaos to Digital Peace

Rajesh(name changed for privacy) had struggled for years to find AMCs, prescriptions, and bills. Emails, phone files, and paper folders were always scattered.

With Homecloud, a self-hosted private cloud, and the Paperless app, every important document is now scanned, stored, and easily searchable.

“It’s the first time I can find what I need in seconds,” says Rajesh. “No subscriptions, no online accounts — just my own self-hosted storage.”


Dance Practice, Distraction-Free

Rajesh’s wife loves classical dance. Watching practice videos on her phone was always interrupted by calls or notifications.

Now, she streams videos on their TV using Jellyfin, directly from their Homecloud media server.

“It feels peaceful,” she smiles. “No ads, no distractions — just my dance and me.”

The self-hosted Jellyfin media server allows her to review, organize, and enjoy videos without interruptions.


Safe Screen Time for Kids

Their five-year-old child enjoys watching shows, but Rajesh’s wife worried about ads and inappropriate suggestions.

Now she curates and downloads kid-safe videos to Homecloud, and the child watches them through Jellyfin.

“No ads, no surprises,” she says. “Screen time is now safe and controlled.”


Smarter Study for the Daughter

Rajesh’s daughter is preparing for competitive exams. Her study group shares exclusive lecture videos that she saves directly to Homecloud.

She can access them from anywhere using Jellyfin, and listen to her favorite music offline, ad-free.

“Homecloud feels like my personal study cloud,” she says.


Secure Password Management with Vaultwarden

Rajesh has always been cautious about storing passwords in cloud services. Privacy and security were top concerns.

With Vaultwarden on Homecloud, he can now save and organize all passwords securely on his self-hosted private cloud, and even share selected ones with his wife.

“I don’t have to worry about my passwords being on someone else’s cloud,” Rajesh says. “Sharing login details with my wife is safe, simple, and private.”

Vaultwarden gives him the convenience of a professional password manager — without compromising privacy.


Effortless Family Photos and Videos with Immich

Rajesh’s wife’s phone was always full of pictures and videos of their children. Rajesh was skeptical about cloud services, and USB drives rarely worked for regular viewing.

Now, all photos and videos from her phone upload directly to Immich on their Homecloud setup, freeing phone storage. He can also view photos from old USB drives anytime, reliving precious family memories.

“Everything is in one place, organized, and accessible any time,” says Rajesh. “Reliving those moments has never been easier.”

Immich turned their scattered media collection into a central, private family gallery, accessible to everyone in the household.


A Family Connected by Homecloud

Homecloud has quietly become the hub of Rajesh’s family life. From Rajesh managing documents, passwords, and media, to his wife dancing freely, and the kids learning and watching safely — every member benefits.

“We can’t imagine a day without it,” says Rajesh.
