What do the forum members advise about using in-body image stabilization and lens stabilization together? I've found conflicting opinions in my online searches on the topic.
(I use a Canon R5 with RF 24-70 and RF 100-500 lenses.)
In my opinion, I'd go with one or the other but not both. They might be fighting with each other as to who to believe.
Personally, I don't use either. Only a few of my lenses have stabilization and thus I simply forget to use it.

That's what I would envision, they would be fighting each other....
The lens may make a correction, then the body could try to make a correction for the correction the lens made.
On the Olympus/OMDS cameras the internal computer is smart enough to differentiate what to do, and it seems to work perfectly in every instance that I've come across. Were it me, I would trust Canon to have designed their system to make it work. And in a pinch, just try both options and make up your own mind.
Just now I did a little further research and found the answer in David Bosch's book on the R5/R6, where he says that Canon has designed the in-body stabilization and the lens stabilization to work together. . . .
Manufacturers always claim an increase in performance when both are used. Unless they specifically warn about using both together I'd be inclined to think it's safe.
Yes, thanks, I’m aware of that. It’s also the case, I’ve learned, that having stabilization in both the camera and the lens helps more.

They work seamlessly together to give more stabilization than either alone.

Thank you for that Now I don't have to do it

I shoot Sony, no issues. There should be a reference to this in your canon manual. Most modern IBIS systems allow cross breeding.

Canon has stated this from the beginning.
No book needed.

I am aware of that. I was thanking because I didn't have to do the typing
