From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Yes they work completely normal. In theory the allocated space also just occupies what is actually used
And if you use Flatpak and snap just install it on your main system?
So this images will always remain the same as I make tweaks and download programs and such? And if I use flatpaks from my main distro, how would that install things on my VM distros?
A VM is like a container but also with its own Kernel. KVM shares the resources tightly with your systems kernel, so it has best performance afaik.
Its its own system, persistent storage, no interaction except if you choose to with spice integration, network, usb, GPU or filesystem passthrough
