- The deprecated taints `node.alpha.kubernetes.io/notReady` and `node.alpha.kubernetes.io/unreachable` are no longer supported or adjusted. These uses should be replaced with `node.kubernetes.io/not-ready` and `node.kubernetes.io/unreachable`

- Deprecate the `topologyKeys` field in Service. This capability will be replaced with upcoming work around Topology Aware Subsetting and Service Internal Traffic Policy. ([#96736](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/96736), [@andrewsykim](https://github.com/andrewsykim)) [SIG Apps]

- `kubectl apply --server-dry-run` is deprecated and replaced with --dry-run=server ([#87580](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/87580), [@julianvmodesto](https://github.com/julianvmodesto)) [SIG CLI]
