- Made legacy watch calls (`ResourceVersion` = 0 or unset) that generate init-events weigh higher in `API Priority and Fairness (APF)` seat usage. Properly accounting for their cost protects the API server from CPU overload. Users might see increased throttling of such calls as a result. ([#134601](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/134601),...

- Introduce `v1beta3` API for scheduler. This version 
  - increases the weight of user specifiable priorities.
  The weights of following priority plugins are increased
    - `TaintTolerations` to 3 - as leveraging node tainting to group nodes in the cluster is becoming a widely-adopted practice

- The deprecated flag `--hard-pod-affinity-symmetric-weight` and `--scheduler-name` have been removed from `kube-scheduler`. Use `ComponentConfig` instead to configure those parameters. ([#102805](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/102805), [@ahg-g](https://github.com/ahg-g))

- Kube-proxy service health returns http header `X-Load-Balancing-Endpoint-Weight` with number of local endpoints. The same information is still available in response body JSON `payload.LocalEndpoints`. ([#118999](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/118999), [@cezarygerard](https://github.com/cezarygerard))
