I am currently participating in another accelerator that is being conducted remotely due the virus.
There are some benefits to the remote format. The most noticeable is that you can network a lot more than you could in real life. Scheduling Zoom calls with your peers is easy enough and you can quickly switch back to working afterwards.
The greatest downside is that I came to SF just for this accelerator and (as it became a remote event) I have been mostly just working from my bedroom.
It is definetely not as fun as meeting people in person though. Having video calls VS working together, brainstorming and going for meals just doesn't create the same relationships. Overall, the experience feels lonely and not much different than participating in entrepreneur Slack community.
