I'm not sure what you mean by HN clones, but there's HN for other communities:

Datatau is like a ghost town, has been for ages. Kind of a shame too :/

Yeah, but its better quality than something like /r/datascience

I've been looking at this question for a while. I think you really have to go niche, by topic or geographic location.

I would love to engage some conversation around how to grow these types of communities.
