It may be good for privacy, however, in the past month or so, I have noticed it is incredibly slow to display the search results.

AFAIK, most indexes ddg uses come from bing. So it's not really a search engine with its own indexes on its own. I'd suggest using SearX, and if one is willing to sacrifice a bit of privacy over some data and stats gathering, then SearxNG.

Is DDG’s search results good, better, or about the same as Google or Bing?

They don't allow extensions like Ublock origin. So no.

I prefer using DDG or Firefox, however my device I lower end and I find that Brave works best on it.

But I use DDG for my search engine.
