Out for my walk yesterday, I fitted the MS Optics Aporia 24mm f/2 lens to the M10-M, stuck a strap on it, carried nothing else: and enjoyed how simple and light the camera can be...

The M10M is too contrasty for me so I’m still finding how to best edit the files to render similarly to HP5

That's the first time I've seen that observation, since the curve of the M10M is flat.  Are you shooting raw files, or perhaps you're using JPEG with in camera increased contrast?

Have you tried the HP5 film emulator in Silver Efex Pro?

I like HP5 classic B&W so...I shoot raw and use LR mastin lab HP5 preset (ipad does not support other software). From there I reduce contrast anywhere between -50 to -30 & bring shadows up. I also match it now with the Elmar 35/50 so it helps get lower contrast. M10M files tend to have too deep blacks VS film so all this combined helps reduce that. Here's a shot from yesterday w/ the Elmar 50 nickel uncoated

I can't say that I know how HP5 renders or what is "native" for it since a B&W film's rendering qualities are so dependent upon exposure, filtering, processing, and all the other et cetera. But, if it is a slightly less contrasty look you are going for with the M10-M, try using a green filter on your lens. You can see the differences between rendering on an Xrite Color Checker between no filter, orange filter, and green filter in my post on this subject here

I tend to use a green filter most of the time in daylight conditions, and of course strive for best exposure (typically, +0.3 to +0.7 EV for raw captures). I find it separates tones subtly and effectively. An orange filter in daylight tends to accentuate contrast even further, with less effect when used under artificial illumination.

Now that's an approach I haven't heard before. I should try that. I have a green filter, but use it only to lighten foliage and/or separate lighter and darker leaves. Also, I read everywhere to underexpose by 1/3 or 2/3 with the Monochrom to protect the highlights. Are you overexposing to make up for the amount of light the green filter cuts out? Also, I do portraits more than anything else, and use a yellow or orange filter to smooth out skin tones in open shade; I've never tried a green filter for faces.
