I know it's hard to wait for updates. Artists work at different tempos.
Something that can really suck the joy out of producing content is people thinking they're entitled to have said update yesterday. In other words. If you want an update, stick to encouragement and keep the rest to yourself.
Otherwise you deserve that they abandon the project. Whether they produce an update once a month or once a decade is not up to you.
I've made addons for a game before, been sick with a heart defect in the hospital, came back home 1 month later and people had blown up every conceivable way of contacting me with rage and entitlement. I made an update where I clarified that because of these people I'd be discontinuing my addons.
