Anyone using the free edition of Bitwarden?
Interested in using for a broad range of devices (Mac/iOS/iPad/Windows/Android).
A question: is the 'cloud' vault location user "provided" as an option?
For example if I would prefer it be on Dropbox or iCloud - can that be
done? (as 1Password used to be before it went subscription-stupid).

You need to use a Bitwarden server (it's not file-based, it's an API-based protocol), but there are a couple of self-hosted versions:

icon in the toolbar, click either the name or password icon and it
copies to the clipboard, a few clicks but at least you get into the site.
On Linux and I would suppose Windows, there is a desktop program. A lot larger and easier to run around. I don't use it now, but did when I was setting things up.
The Firefox add-on will export to csv or, json in English or encrypted.
My wife uses it to with a different master password of course, but all I have to do is login with her id and I can see what she has for a site
that maybe I don't.
I set the timeout on my phone to 30 minutes or so, and then it locks.
That way I can hit a lot of sites and not have the vault lock all the
time on me.

I apologize if BitWarden is the only consideration, as I understand this is not BitWarden, but it is a free respectable password management solution.

I saw your answers for BitWarden where another suggestion is KeepassXC
(the XC stands for cross compatible with macOS, Windows & Linux). https://keepassxc.org/
Their documentation discusses most of the questions you might have. https://keepassxc.org/docs/
For example, Cloud synchronization with Dropbox, Google Drive, OneDrive, ownCloud, Nextcloud etc. https://keepassxc.org/docs/#faq-cloudsync
And just as easy to use compatible free tools on iOS & Android with it. https://keepassxc.org/docs/#faq-platform-mobile
For iOS, we suggest Strongbox and KeePassium to open KeepassXC databases. https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/strongbox-password-safe/id897283731 https://apps.apple.com/us/app/keepassium-keepass-passwords/id1435127111
And for Android, we recommend KeePassDX and KeePass2Android. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kunzisoft.keepass.free https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=keepass2android.keepass2android
I apologize if BitWarden is the only consideration, as I understand this is not BitWarden, but it is a free respectable password management solution. Another option, which actually works quite well in its simplicity, is to
put the plaintext password file into a TrueCrypt VeraCrypt LUKS container.
VeraCrypt is a FOSS encryption program for Windows, Mac OSX and Linux. https://veracrypt.eu/en/
Free third-party apps work with the database on both Android & iOS. https://veracrypt.eu/en/Android%20%26%20iOS%20Support.html
