The whole spin operator and spin kube plugin situation is a bit of a mess right now.

The incompatibility with Rancher Desktop 1.16 is expected because spinkube 0.4.0 and spin kube plugin 0.3.0 are not backwards compatible.

We've updated to spinkube 0.4.0 in #7725 and #7733, but the spin kube plugin 0.3.0 is not compatible with that either (https://github.com/spinkube/spin-plugin-kube/issues/93). It has been fixed upstream, but there is no new release yet.

I've also provided some feedback on how breaking API changes could be handled better in https://github.com/spinkube/spin-operator/issues/352.

Everything should be working fine with the latest spinkube plugin and operator in Rancher Desktop 1.17.0 (assuming a new working plugin release comes out).
