New to the @ycombinator world & hoping to get into x25, but wild to see people complain YC is too "hands-off." They invest $500K, give you access to top partners & give you a shot with their investor network - what more do you want? It’s on you to grab the opportunity & execute.

For any pre-seed founders exploring accelerators, this is my shortlist: • @HF0Residency (SF) • @southpkcommons (SF/NYC/Bangalore) • Arc by @Seqoia (US/EU) • PearX by @pearvc (SF) • @AIgrant (global) • @Neo (SF) • @conviction Embed (SF) • @ycombinator (SF) • Product
