Would love some recommendations on anything architecture/design related that had HN’s format (unless the subreddits for those topics are as good as it gets)

Architecture and design forums don't, in my experience, work.

They attract amateurs.

Amateurs generally repel expertise.

And experts are already busy doing the thing their expert at...serving clients.

To put it another way, working architects and designers don't have much if any upside from arguing with do-it-yourselfers, people who have only heard of FLW, and the general public which think of commercial construction as just like their house only more so.
