As much as I like SteamOS, it really bothers me that it deletes Waydroid when it updates. Idk why it does that but it's irritating. Does Bazzite have the same issue?
This is a feature, not a bug.
Immutable distributions will revert themselves to stock (spare your home folder) on update. If you install your apps via flatpak this won't happen.
Since waydroid is not available on flathub, I believe you will continue to have this problem unless you leave immutability turned off completely, which defeats the number one safety net you have against yourself.
Bazzite doesn't have this issue. Waydroid actually comes pre-installed as part of Bazzite
