can I delete all my pics and videos off my iPhone if they’ve all been synced to my iCloud? And will they still appear on my iCloud if they’ve been synced? Worried that if I delete everything all my videos & photos will no longer be on my iCloud saved.

iPhone XS Max, iOS 14
iCloud Photos is a syncing service. Any photo you delete from a device where iCloud Photos is turned on will also be deleted from iCloud and from any other device connected to iCloud Photos. You can potentially reduce the storage space required on a device by turning on Optimize Storage. See the following Apple article for more information: Set up and use iCloud Photos - Apple Support
Apple does not currently offer cloud-only storage for photos. If that is what you want or need, you may want to explore 3rd party options such as Google Photos or Dropbox.

How to check if all my photos and videos are synced to my iCloud to delete them from my iPhone?
