Solution:
Well, I was able to resolve it but not sure what was going on. I completely removed the homebrew folder and all sub folders. Then reran the bazzite portal and had it install decky and the framegen plugin and it all worked fine. Not really sure what caused the permissions to be messed up to begin with on the homebrew folder.

if you run mkdir -p /home/bazzite/homebrew/services do you also get the permissions denied error? Maybe try the uninstall script curl -L https://github.com/SteamDeckHomebrew/decky-installer/releases/latest/download/uninstall.sh | sh before you try and install it again (details from https://github.com/SteamDeckHomebrew/decky-loader)
