Most emails in local folder before 2023 are lost
I have lost all emails from 2008 to 2021 and most emails from 2021 to 2023.
I use the local folder to store old emails that do not fit in the main email account. I have deleted all old emails on my email server (account) assuming that those old emails are stored in the local folder. If thunderbird for some reason delete all emails in the local folder that are removed from the main account then I have a problem.
Is it possible to regain the emails from 2008 to 2023 by some means.
I guess that it could be possible by adding some backup if thunderbird lost them.

Yes. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/thunderbird-export - if you have less than 2gb
The first question was, why thunderbird have deleted most emails between 2008 and 2023. To restore emails do not help very much if thunderbird will later delete them.

Is each year's data saved in a different folder? (that would probably be best) Do any have retention values set in Properties > Retention Settings?
After the fact, typically impossible to say why it was lost, much less will it happen again in the future. But losses of this type and magnitude tend to be something on the local computer - anvirus SW, bad disk, etc. In those cases, typically an entire folder of messages is lost.
