For general Q&A you might better use the discussions here:
https://github.com/eclipse-platform/.github/discussions
this question is only loosely related to platform development.
In general Git has the concept of remotes and you have a local copy, so
YES this will destroy everything on your github account and make it as
you have nothing changed.
That's how you you go:
0) make a backup of your local data (!)
1) create a new branch of your local changes e.g. name it BACKUP_ISSUE_xyz
2) push the branch to your fork, use the UI to check if all your
valuable work is there!
3) change to the master branch in the UI and sync it with the forked
repo so you are up to date.
4) now in your local copy change to the master and reset it to the state
of the remote (don't push anything!)
5) create a new branch from master e.g. issue_xyz
6) now merge with squash option your local BACKUP_ISSUE_xyz branch or
copy files from the backup in step (0)
7) commit and push the new branch and you should have a clean state now
to start from again.

Your fork or your master branch?
1) always work on branches
2) if you open github UI there is a sync button:
https://docs.github.com/en/pull-requests/collaborating-with-pull-requests/working-with-forks/syncing-a-fork
if you chose to discard your commits you are up to date with the
forked repo.

Trying to fix my fork that has a ton of commits
that were from my AWS account that has no email ( too expensive ).
So I tried rewriting all my commits
with a git filter to modify all the history, looked like it work
on my local branch, but not github....
and I think now my fork has become
out of sync and Im unable to successfully do PR.
Can I delete the fork and pull a new one, then re-add my bundles?
ANY HELP GREATLY appreciated!
