Launching without hype, has anyone tried it?

I launched a few things. Got some upvotes. But nothing really came out of it. No real users. No honest feedback.

Been thinking... maybe the way we launch is broken.

Just want to know how others feel about this, has anyone tried launching without the push? Just showing up in public, sharing what you're building, day by day, messy, unpolished, and real.

Would love to jam.
