Yes, long comments can be nice. A short comment is still an acknowledgment! Someone who leaves a single-sentence thank you is okay, actually.

You're okay, coalie.

Though do you write comments soon after gifts go live? That's what I really care about.

Because of timezones, the archive tends to open for me in the gap between the kids opening their presents and my having to start lunch, so I can usually comment pretty much immediately.

Length of a comment doesn't actually reflect how much someone liked it and it's very weird to judge whether or not something was worth doing based on the response you get.
