Elsewhere in this forum it says Electrum partially supports Taproot, but Electrum can only generate legacy addresses.
I like Electrum because it's light weight and easy to use, but where and how can I get a Taproot address that I can then import into Electrum?

Your question is similar to another user's in the following thread several months ago: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5494877.0.
Other similar questions can be seen at https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum/issues/7544.

Currently, Electrum does not fully support Taproot; in this case, it cannot be used to generate Taproot addresses.

Legacy addresses? No. Electrum no longer generates Legacy addresses by default, from version 4.1.0 Electrum generates only Segwit wallets with Bech32 addresses by default, which for obvious reasons is a better option of wallet to use, to save up on fees in your transaction.

However, Electrum can still generate seed phrases (Electrum seed type, https://electrum.readthedocs.io/en/latest/seedphrase.html) using the console to create wallets with Legacy address types, https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5338687.msg57048278#msg57048278.
