Hello guys,
i am also facing the same issue using kopf 1.37.2 on python 3.12 and kubernetes 1.29.
It was working perfectly well until we updated from kubernetes 1.28 to 1.29 (1.29.7-gke.1274000 on google)

We see the same issue im multiple kopf based operators. Any idea about the root of the problem? My team and I would be happy to contribute.

Hello,

we faced similar issues using AKS, and we enforced a server timeout using something like

@kopf.on.startup()
def configure(settings: kopf.OperatorSettings, **_):
  settings.watching.server_timeout = 210

give it a try.
