There are many options for us to have an account wallet for Ethereum, one of these is Trust Wallet, Metamask, Coinomi, or myetherwallet. But most commonly useful to me are Trust and myetherwallet. I had been using these two for a couple of years now. Then, the rest that I had mentioned at the above was also good to use too.
if the purpose for the wallet transaction you mentioned is good enough I also use Metamask, myetherwallet and Trust Wallet, but not for Coinomi because there are many cases in Coinomi wallet that I know of, but if the purpose of saving in the long term is better to use wallet hardware, like nano, trezor and other ledger

To me, going through myetherwallet iaba rather tedious way, and for newbies with little knowledge you could enter the wrong webpage unknowingly
The bets Way to download an etherum wallet is to get either trust or imtoken 2.0 wallet.
It is available on both android and ios applications store

Sadly, there is no decent desktop wallet for etehreum.
You have to use those shitful and insecure wallets such as MEW and Metamask. Those browser wallets are terrible IMO, as they are much more susceptible to attacks than desktop wallets such as electrum.
I always though how come a blockchain that doesn't even have a desktop wallet can be successful...

Well, mew have android version of their app but I don't know if iphone is also supported. Sad thing is you can only add eth wallet using only recovery phrase. There are other eth wallet like trustwallet. Same as bitcoin you can download electrum also support mobile phones version.
Thanks I downloaded the MyCrypto Desktop app and it restored my wallet from the keystore.
So how come MyCrypto can do it similar to the old Mist wallet but MEW winges about Software and like you said it claims it has been dicontinued because it is not secure?
Mycrypto is nothing but an app created by the members who separated themselves from MEW in the recent days.So its more like a similar to MEW and got some added features which is not available yet in MEW.But there is nothing called an official wallet for electrum.

visit mycrypto.com and download it. it's a desktop wallet that will make you able to access your wallet use the vintage version while MEW has already removed this feature due to the security problem.
I guess that will make able to use your old keystore.

You can use metamask add-on for an internet browser app like chrome, just download metamask in your add on then you can export your own wallet using private key, json file. Or if you want to download mobile eth wallet app, you can use imtoken.
There are numerous Ethereum wallwts available bith on mobile and desktop. Metamask is one of the best but I use Imtoken more. There is also Trust wallet and Eidoo wallet. These are wallets that are compatible with all tokens issued on Ethereum not just Ether alone.
think that OP has a very good question here about ethereum wallets , is it something you need to stake ethereum when ethereum 2.0 is coming out or can you stake ethereum also with any online wallet like metamask and etherscan? , never had an official wallet for ethereum
Bitcoin core is not an official wallet of bitcoin, it just most trusted wallet which need full node to run an application so for ethereum also you can download the trusted wallets like MEW or hardware wallets.
For bitcoin there is Bitcoin Core which downloads the whole blockchain a few hundred gigabytes then you can use the wallet.
Any help how to get access to a wallet using the backup keystores from the "old"/"classic" wallet?

I found several articles about full Ether nodes and wallet
https://github.com/ethereum/mist/releases
https://docs.ethhub.io/using-ethereum/running-an-ethereum-node/
I do not really understand the classic node wallet ethereum, but please examine the link above. I'm just giving an idea, danger or not, maybe you are more aware because I haven't tried it myself. Sorry if i wrong about that.
You can use MetaMask, for access to your wallet you would need private key or backup and your password. But I do not think that there is a classic fullnode wallet like we know it from BTC.

For Ethereum, there used to be a wallet. I have done a backup of the key stores but now I am trying to download that classic wallet but I can't find a download link.
The only nearest thing I found was MyEtherWallet (MEW) but then there is no Download button anywhere on their website, and even whien i try the software version it says Not recommended:
