How to transfer eth from old account

Sorry if this question isn't appropriate but I can't find this info anywhere, probably because I'm not quite sure how to phrase it.

I mined eth for a while back in 2018 and 2019. Joined a pool and mined to an acct I setup locally with geth. Later switched to nicehash. Transferred some of my eth out to a coinbase account but still have approx 1.8 eth in there and haven't done anything at all with the acct since we'll before the switch to POS. Fired up geth a couple days ago to finally transfer my eth and realized of course my old geth couldn't connect to the network any longer and downloading a new version gives the error: "Failed to register the Ethereum service: ethash is only supported as a historical component of already merged networks"

Ok so then it dawned on me.. I won't be connecting to the block chain directly like I did previously since I can't stake. What's the easiest way to transfer my eth now? Can I still locally connect to the network to submit a transaction even without mining or do I need to use some other service? Assume total newb, but not newb enough to respond to DMs offering to "help".
