Does this type of subdomain affect indexing and performance?
.uk.com Domains like this have a high DR, but are they actually useful?

That high dr can be pretty misleading tbh. These domains share the same suffix but that doesn't mean your site inherits authority from other sites using it.
Check the actual backlinks and organic traffic of the specific domain. Google can index it fine but the suffix alone isn't giving you a ranking boost

DR does not give the whole picture i would investigate whether the domain has any real organic traffic appropriate content and clean backlink history
the use of that extension does not ensure better indexing or ranking. Has anybody tested these two domains with actual traffic?

A high DR alone does not guarantee better rankings because Google still evaluates content quality relevance and overall site signals

I am not familiar with domains yet but i would not evaluate a website solely based on its DR first of all i would see how much traffic and backlinks it gets as well as how well indexed it is moreover i am interested if Google sees these sites differently or not.

Those third level domains usually carry zero real authority because google treats them basically like subfolders of the main registry site so they wont pass any meaningful link juice to your money site.

Is it unable to generate any returns?

like others said, .uk.com is basically a pseudo-TLD, so your site is really just a subdomain. the DR is high because it's measured on the parent, not on your name, so there's no actual weight passing to you. Semrush AS or Majestic TF judge these way better than DR
tbh, I would be more concerned about the source of the DR than the .uk.com. Even when the link appears to be good and there was almost no indexing for the web page that high score could be somewhat deceptive.
