Are these spider eggs in my potting soil or am I stupid? Saw these in three of my plants that all use the same soil so I’m not sure if it’s eggs or maybe the potting soil just does that?

it’s a type of saprophytic fungi which is not harmful to your plant. you can scrape it out and/or sprinkle some cinnamon on it

Agreed. I regularly mix cinnamon into the top 1-2 in of my soil. I use a chopstick to stir the soil around so the cinnamon isn't just sitting on the top layer. Then I spray the surface generously with neem oil. 👍🏻
