You can easily check to see if you have been using photo stream or see if you even have the option to use it.
First, launch the Photos app and look for an album titled Photo Stream. If you have no such album, you have no worries.
You can also check in Settings>Photos. If you have a photo stream option it will be visible in there. If you don’t see the option, you don’t have it so once again, no worries.
If you have the option but you never enabled it, … no worries. You aren’t using it.
Even if you are using Photo stream, all of the photos in there are on one of your devices and when photo stream is closed down, you will keep the photos on that device.
This is a worthwhile read, so take a look.

Go to the Photos app and choose Albums on the bottom. If you have a "My Photo Stream" album, then those pictures are the ones you would want to save, if you want them on that device also. If you do not have that Album, then it will not affect you at all.
There would be no videos in a My Photo Stream album as they were never supported. The same would be true for any Live Photos.
That was very helpful.
Thank you so much!
Thanks! It was specially helpful to know that videos were never supported on My Photo Stream.
You are quite welcome.
No Problem.
Good Day!
