silently wonders how does the deduplication work, if the asset that's in an album gets deleted, does the other asset gets automatically added to that album?

this is because immich will never alter an original file (it's against the immich development design). The original asset will remain unchanged, however xmp files will store additional / altered data related to the asset.
