I only have heat. So in the winter I usually set it to 65°F, then my wife sets it to 68°F. Then she sets it to 70°F. Then she sets it to 72°F.

I keep mine on 64F room temp and hover around that. I use fans in the heat and portable heaters in the cold. But I heard keep it just below 70 in the winter and just above 70 in the summer to have a better bill.
18° during the day, 16° at night. I remember reading somewhere that getting down to 15° or lower for extended periods of time can cause problems for your house.
Stun.
As cold as the other people in the house will let me. I have rarely lived anywhere with functioning central heat and air (and have never liked it when I did), so generally I use window units and a cunningly devised system of curtains. I don't care if a hallway or the bathroom gets hot, so long as the bedroom and kitchen stay cool, y'know?
In the winter I almost never use heating, except for a small space heater I just take room to room with me, and one that I run while in the shower.
Ours is a variable speed compressor so during the summer, it is set to 76 during the day when my wife/kids are there and set to maintain humidity under 50% which allows overcooling by 2 degrees. We run at 70/69 at night because our youngest doesn't sleep well with the fan running in our room so I have it cooler to keep from soaking the bed with sweat.
I find roughly 80 degrees good for my sauna.
Nothing. My place is so well insulated (with triple glazing) that I don't have to heat. Don't have AC, but closing the blinds during the day keeps things cool enough.
68f in the winter, and N/A for the summer (dont have AC)
78
I agree that 78°F is way too high to be a confortable sleeping temp, though being in a country where residential AC isn't really a thing and inside temps at night often are higher than that in summer... you get used to it, it'll just never be fun.
My ideal sleeping temp is like 15°C but even if I had AC that seems too wasteful so I'd probably settle for 18-20
When I have my AC on (usually on the hottest summer days), I set it to 19°C (66.2°F) so it's not too cold.
23 in winter and 22 in summer. Nights are set at 18 all year long.
74F in the winter. In the summer I usually leave the A/C off and use fans, but if it gets above 90F I'll let it run for a few hours before bed.
I seriously don't understand how people farther north of me survive the cold. And I live in Atlanta, so there's a lot of them.
some people in my family have sensory things where they feel slightly hotter than others. 69f for most of the year, in winter we hardly use the heater since it doesn't freeze where we live, but my room doesn't have full insulation since the garage is below it, so I have a little bathroom heater in winter.
If it was up to me probs ~71.
