I have a NAS with a couple of SSDs configured in a ZFS mirror that backs up to a Raid Z2 storage pool on the same NAS. Again, on that NAS, I run [Paperless-ngx](https://docs.paperless-ngx.com/) in a docker container. Finally, I use the iOS app [Swift Paperless](https://apps.apple.com/us/app/swift-paperless/id6448698521) to upload documents to Paperless-ngx. All done over Tailscale. My load bearing NAS has a lot of redundancy but no offsite backups so I still keep some important documents in the cloud. I'm saving up for another NAS that I can keep at a family members house but prices are insane right now :/ If you can follow the 3-2-1 storage rule without using the cloud, that's awesome. However, the upfront cost can be expensive depending on how much you are storing. Just do the best you can using whatever you have available to you, even if that means using iCloud as part of your setup.
