Where do questions along the lines of "how do I get my scanner (model number here) to work over the network with the latest OS X ?" (and similar questions) go?
(Obviously, they don't go on Stack Overflow.)
Is there a master list somewhere?

There is a master list.
And the correct site could well be Ask Different - as they say:
Ask Different is for Apple enthusiasts and power users. If you have a question about ...
- Apple hardware
- Apple software
- other Apple products or services
- third-party hardware and software for Apple products
and it is not about ...
- Apple Developer Programs or iTunes Connect (including iAd and the iBookstore)
- programming, with the exception of AppleScript and Automator
- installing or using Apple operating systems on non-Apple hardware
- a shopping or buying recommendation for hardware
- pre-release or beta software
- obtaining or using pirated software or media
... then you're in the right place to ask your question!

@Arjan Ash a bash question - it is on topic on SO, SuperUser, Unix & Linux and AskDifferent. If you are Ubuntu replace Ask Different by Ubuntu There is not one correct place for all questions sometimes there are several sites.– mmmmmmCommented Jun 24, 2020 at 11:23

1@mmmmmm indeed, and 8 years later, I stil don't like that overlap very much. ;-)– ArjanCommented Jun 24, 2020 at 12:23
Super User is the most likely site - it is for general computing questions.
From the FAQ:
Super User is for computer enthusiasts and power users. If you have a question about …
- computer hardware
- computer software
- personal and home computer networking
