Usually closed because I like to be naked, but I would prefer it open for the pets to come and go as they please.

Both, because I'm lazy. Whatever the door is at is how it will stay.
I live on my own so all the doors in the flat are open all the time, even the bathroom ones.
Open for air circulation. My fiancee and I live in a too-small, old apartment which, naturally, has trash airflow. Getting the AC to decently reach the bedroom requires multiple fans.
When sleeping, me close door
Closed. My housemate's cats sometimes pounce onto my bed and wake me up.
The closed door also dampens outside noise.
Closed, i don't like mosquitoes.
I keep mine closed but not latched so the dogs can open it in the morning otherwise they sit outside and scratch and wake us up.
Closed. Like to keep my room temperature like 10Β°C lower the rest of the house during the night
Closed because Iβm afraid of the dark most times. My cats donβt care they run around the living room. Dog sleeps with me on the floor at the bed to protect me.
Open. The decline of the political climate in this country since 2001 has made me fear for my safety since I was in middle school, so keeping the door open helps satisfy that part of my brain that's always in threat detection mode by allowing me to hear everything in the house from my bed.
Plus, I live alone. So pretty much every door is open all the time.

Life hack: third floor in a concrete building.
- no one's coming in
- 4 fob doors to get to me
- it ain't burning
- better air above the trees
- centralized heating often includes cooling (old-ass jersey-style radiators are the bomb)
I want it closed, but the dog wants it open and his litter box is in the hallway. So, open it is.
Window open, door closed; window closed, door open. I do what I can to prevent unnecessary door slamming in the night caused by a draft from the window
Closed, keeps the dogs in so they don't leave us a surprise.
Cracked open so we can hear across the house to our kids room (also cracked open)β¦ baby gates in front of both rooms to prevent the cats from disturbing our sleep lol
Open but I live alone in a small 1 bedroom apartment. Mostly so I can shuffle to the bathroom in the night if needed without needing to open the door
Open both for airflow and because we have animals that do not like to be restricted.
Open - just me and my husband here and it keeps the room cooler.
Thanks for sharing dicksinabag
Open in summer, for ventilation. In winter it stays closed to let the bedroom be chilly, without affecting the rest of the place.
closed
Open when I was at my house. Closed as I'm renting an apartment now with several flatmates.
I don't have a door
Don't have a door but a stair. Don't need a door cause I'm the king of the castle
Open, so I can see and hear out.
