For every project community means everything. Only community can desigt how usefull is the project and what it can offer the people.
Without community it is impossible to survive. It is necessary to support community and incourage the community.
Community support the ecosystem of the project.
Well it's true that the community has a big part in every project but it's useless if the community spreads FUD to the project itself without any positive comments the project will fall slowly. If we dont like the project because the team didn't hear what you want it's better to look for another project that respects us more. More community in a project will help the project get known by other people because more people more free advertising.
That's the danger of the community, if they are not satisfied with the developers they can easily bring fud that can harm the project, if you are unsure with the project better not to invest or continue observing, it's sometimes good to allow some time and see how the community reacts with the asset before jumping into conclusion.
Protect your investment by allowing yourself to engage with the project's communities. They can give you hints whether to continue or pick another project to support.
