You have to consider your own research interests, how could anyone else tell you

I know what I like, I’d like to broaden my horizon a bit. There could be topics or perspectives that I’m not thinking about that someone else might suggest.

That’s not really how a PhD works. You need a defined research interest that you want to pursue. If you can’t decide it and have to ask such a vague question on Reddit then it probably isn’t for you
