Hello ESP32 Community! :)

I'd like to use the ESP32-S3 with I2C and CAN Bus communications.

Are there preferred PINs on the ESP32-S3 for this purpose?
Like for SPI (IO9 to IO14).

kind regards,
Martin

No, there are not. You can pick any pin for this (that is not input-only or used for other things like flash).

Can you use an input-only pin for TWAI-Rx?

You can; it's OK to use input-only pins for input-only functionality. (Thanks for pointing that out, it slipped my mind that CAN has a RX pin before the transceiver.)
