no matter how many apps, photos or message attachments I delete from my phone (64 GB), it doesn’t give me more space. I’m down to only the essential apps and everything else is offloaded. How do I fix this practically? I have plenty of iCloud storage (2TB) . So how can I be sure I don’t lose all my pictures if I delete everything off of my phone ?

Your photos are always available for both iPhone and iCloud. You delete it on the iPhone it is gone from iCloud and vice-versa. To save space on your iPhone use optimized iPhone storage. Remember, if you delete in one it is deleted everywhere.
Get started with iCloud Photos:
With Optimize Storage, smaller, space-saving photos and videos are kept on your device while all of your original, full-resolution versions are stored in iCloud. And as long as you have enough space in iCloud, you can store as many photos and videos as you want.

Is there anyway to save photos to my iCloud but remove them from the phone ? Sounds like I still just have to delete everything but that isn’t my goal.
I have 2 TB of iCloud storage already .
can you save to your iCloud while preserving space on your phone at all ?
Unable to reduce iPhone storage
