a Hpmor subreddot seems the most obvious to me.
An actual mathematics/logic/decision theory that's heavily moderated like stack-exchange seems like it would be useful for the people who can hack it and useful to separate from the regular stream of content when trying to attract further mathematicians. Is it possible to limit posts to certain subreddits to only those with vetted privileges?
A "stupid questions" or "questions about the sequences" subreddit could be useful for new people as well as to further discuss old but interesting material.
Reddit /r/hpmor does this job quite well already (and you'll see LW regulars there).
I disagree about Hpmor. I think that discussion of hpmor on lesswrong will and should die down after the story is finished.
Then you seem to have missed the entire point of HPMOR even existing.
After further reflection, I think you might be right, especially since people can just not follow that subreddit. r/hmpor is currently popular, and it could be good for lesswrong if we could get that moved here.
By "good for lesswrong," I actually meant "good for people who could use lesswrong." I am not sure whether or not the effect on the content is positive.
I think it makes the content less generally useful but more generally fun.
