I have TB 88.0b2 with Lightning and a google calendar configured. On pretty much every event I get a reminder (good) but then also a notification "The item has recently been changed on the server. Submitting your changes will overwrite the changes made on the server" (bad). First, nothing changed on the server (but it is a shared calendar so probability is 95%), second - I definitely did not change the item on either side (neither in TB nor in gmail).
What is that it thinks has been changed? And how to stop this overwrite warnings to occur for no reason? So far the only solution seems to be making all such calendars "read only" but may be there is a smaller hammer?
"Submitting changes to the server" - why does it appear?

Re: "Submitting changes to the server" - why does it appear?
TB 88.0b2 is outdated and no longer supported.
Calendar is built-in and no longer an extension.
Update to 89.0b3.
There could be a fix for your issue. Check the release notes.

89.0b4 (64-bit) has the exact same issue. I am pretty sure this is a feature, I just do not understand it.

Do you have the same issue using Help > Troubleshoot Mode?

Took a bit of time to verify but yes, it happens in the troubleshoot mode too.

still happening. It stops if I mark a calendar as "read only" but after a while read only checkbox gets unchecked and the message appears again (which is another bug?)

I am also having this issue on my laptop (Windows Surface) but not on two other computers that also use Thunderbird. This message regards a calendar entry that I deleted in February, but this message ("This item has recently been changed on the serve...") just started popping up this week. "Delete anyway" usually closes the window (sometimes I have to do it several times) where as "Discard my changes and reload" does not do anything.
The fact that it is happening one just one computer but not the others seems strange.
