Syncthing works great for these kinds of applications:
https://syncthing.net/

Install on all 3 nodes, add a shared directory on all 3 and it will keep
everything synced. Lightweight single binary written in go and runs on
almost every platform.

I've replaced a number of messy rsync setups with syncthing and it also
enables some more complex and interesting topologies (for example I have an
offline host with limited resources pushing data to a nearby host with
internet connectivity and from there to multiple other hosts).
