To test, I've installed 78 and set up a profile with my accounts, all working well.

My only confusion- since Lightning calendar support is now built-in- is how to actually ad my Google calendar like I used to with Lightning.

With the addon lightning, I could sign into my Google account and give permissions. That doesn't appear to be an option in 78.

Appears to do the trick! Thanks kindly.

If there are other tricks for Gcalendar, please feel free to enlighten me, others who might find this.

Hello, into TbSync I see: This Add-on does not support Goolge. Alternatives: - CardBook - Provider for Google Calendar

So, please, what to use?

You can use the suggested alternatives, or use TbSync by double-clicking extensions.dav4tbsync.googlesupport to true in Options/General/Indexing/Config. editor.

Google calendar can be added directly as a CalDAV calendar:
