Q: How to sync deletions iPhone and Mac
Hi,
I'm having synced my photos from iPhone to Macbook through Photo Stream, not using iCloud for photos.
How can I make the photos I delete on my iPhone deleted on my Macbook, too?

As I said, with Photo Stream there surely is not any way to do that. Photo Stream simply cannot sync changes across devices like that. Photo stream is nothing more than a temporary cache to allow distribution of photos across devices. Once distributed to those other devices, Photo Stream has no connection with the content at all and changes on any given device are local changes only.
Apple's solution for continually sync'ing changes to your photo libraries on multiple devices is iCloud Photo Library.
If that is not a solution for you, then you will have to investigate third party photo storage and sync'ing options. Depending on how much storage your photo's need, almost all of those will also require a fee for the only library storage If you have a large photo collection to keep sync'd.
