Question on transiting through Singapore to Thailand , what is the difference in vaccination proof you need for the Singapore flight versus the Thailand flight ? If any ? I read vaccination proof is required to even transit through Singapore , although I may be mistaken

TLDR : Answer Summary
When transiting through Singapore to Thailand, travelers need to provide vaccination proof which is primarily required for flights part of the Vaccinated Travel Lane (VTL). For Singapore, proof of vaccination including a digital QR code is necessary if flying under the VTL program. Notably, the timing for the RT-PCR test is different; it has to be taken 48 hours prior for Singapore as opposed to 72 hours for Thailand. A user mentioned that during their transit in late October, there were no checks on vaccination proof in Singapore, but they had to fulfill requirements only at their point of departure.

When i transited late October, they didn't ask for anything at Singapore, just original point of departure where i needed the covid test etc.

It depends if your flight is part of their VTL (vaccinated travel lane) or not. If the flight is VTL you need digital proof (qr) of vaccination if that's your question. I would reach out directly to the airline to answer your questions to make sure you get the absolute right answer.

It’s part of their VTL program but only because that’s the only kind of flight available from SFO. Will double check with airline

QR code is ideal didnt think they needed for transit but maybe wrong. Main difference transiting through Singapore is you need RT PCR test 48 hours before not 72 hrs

Not necessarily , Singapore is strict on the type of proof. Some people from the USA (that were entering Singapore , not transiting) got served quarantine notices on arrival due to having not the right QR code proof.
