Is there any source to go to that lists the most optimal inputs for different dacs?

Ie dacs which are best fed by: AES/EBU, S/PDIF, I2S and USB.

I have a reasonable idea which dacs favour USB, but am not so well informed on other inputs.

I have been recommended a particular network bridge - dac option, but it works best w AES/EBU, and I'm unsure which dacs favour this. Interested in all other non-USB options as well.
