I am using older Thunderbird 102.x due to newer version having an issue. The Search tab contains "Find Events" input area, where i can search all Events, but not Tasks. Which is weird and wrong IMO. I always assumed that it search everything in calendar. So how do i search also Tasks or how to convert all to events?

From the beginning i was not told the difference between the Events and Tasks, it is not enough intuitive for me to differentiate the two. https://superuser.com/questions/1321548/thunderbird-add-on-lightning-what-is-the-difference-between-event-and-task

On the Calendar tab, Events & Tasks, check Tasks (Alt+4) to show the search bar. Press Alt if the Menu Bar with Events & Tasks is hidden.

In simple terms, I think of events as having a defined start and end time, whereas tasks do not. Scheduled meetings are obviously events, while 'fix my computer' is a task.
