Closed in the winter, Open most of the summer so that the whole house fan can pull air in and through the bedroom cooling things down.

I keep mine slightly open and make sure there is a window open in my room and in another room to create a breeze
Open when I was at my house. Closed as I'm renting an apartment now with several flatmates.
Open but these fire comments have me reevaluating
That's why you have fire detectors in every room.
I prefer closed, but since our cat moved in, the door has been left ajar.
Winter: Closed. It can get to -25C where I live, and I need to sleep with the window open. I don't want the rest of my house ruined with the door open.
Summer: depends on the heat. If OK, closed. If too hot, door ajar
do you have your window open when the outside temperature is in the negatives?
Lol of course you would. Need fresh air.
edit: plus im guessing they live in norway or finland (ignoring sweden cuz fuck sweden) or canada. And we are used to the cold. Ive gone to school (2.7km at the time) in -33 C without gloves and normal clothes so
only -33 hey? i wish where i lived was that warm. I've gone to WORK (4km uphill both ways) in -40 without a shirt and just my booty shorts so...
Yea seems about right. U was lucky and lived at the sea. But someplaces in the region got to -45 in winter for several months

open, I need the connection to the rest of the world.
Fire vs CO2 buildup. I guess door closed, window open could be the way?
Open. I want to hear if anything happens in my house.
Open, lets the air circulate better
Open, doggo likes to do perimeter checks throughout the night
Gotta have it open, it gets way too hot in the room otherwise (classic trailer heat/cold problems). Luckily my 2 dogs would wake me for any issues and we live a little ways from civilization so there are very few nights that the wife and I worry
Open for ventilation and to hear a potentially screaming kid.
Closed. Privacy ftw
my door doesn't close fully, so I close it all but the crack that is forced. I do this because people in the house are up and down constantly, and my sleep schedule would bd interrupted if I left it open.
Closed, because of cats.
Oh and also for fire safety, I guess.
Closed. The only door I have is the door to the house floor, sooo..
Well, I have the bathroom door which I always leave open for ventilation reasons, but well.
