What does the 3-2-1 rule look like for you? (lemm.ee)

I'm trying to plan a better backup solution for my home server. Right now I'm using Duplicati to back up my 3 external drives, but the backup is staying on-site and on the same kind of media as the original. So, what does your backup setup and workflow look like? Discs at a friend's house? Cloud backup at a commercial provider? Magnetic tape in an underground bunker?

DO NOT follow my lead, my backup solution is scuffed at best.

I have:

RAID1 array w/ 2 drives
Photos on the device that took them
Photos on a random old hard drive pulled from an ancient apple mac.

2:

I've got a hard drive and flash memory?

Don't have this at all, the closest is that my phone is off-site half of the day.
