I think it was inevitable...when I first created my HN account in 2009, accelerators were a novel concept, and each new cohort produced exciting new startups that I was eager to watch and wanted to emulate. After a few years it felt like all the cohorts started to blend into each other, and demo days weren't interesting anymore, and there weren't any startups I cared to follow. It's similar to what happened with crypto...with Bitcoin, Litecoin, and Ethereum, it was an interesting sector to follow. But with millions of coins and tokens floating around, it's hard to follow.
