Do you enjoy "LONG" lifespan?
Just asking to the players who have set their sims lifespan to "long" since I have always been playing as "Normal" lifespan for a while and somehow I find the game rushed due to my sims not being able...

I play legacy with aging set on "long". I absolutely love it. There's no going back. I can't go back to normal because the game feels too rushed. Sometimes (rarely actually) I'll feel their lives are *too* long if I'm not super into that generation, but usually I have tons of random parties for fun, get togethers, vacations, skill building days, etc. I typically manage to fill up their lives very well.
I will say, if you play on "long" lifespan. The biggest "adjustment" is to have your sim keep friends as well. I think people who focus on "normal" are so rushed they just focus on their sims' lifelong partner and career only, but as someone who plays on "long" my sims have best friends, cousins, and exes that are usually thrown into the mix, too.
I agree. Long allows you to focus on friendships and socializing with extended family. I frequently have child sims create clubs with their cousins. I send adult siblings to each other houses so they can meet their nieces and nephews and form relationships with them. So they help their nieces and nephews skill up, read them to sleep. I've even pulled off sleepovers with toddlers.
By focusing on relationships outside of the home it keeps from getting bored.
