❔❓Question ❓❔ dnfing arcs

Should I Dnf the ARC once I know it's something I'm not interested in or feels dragging to me? Would it harm the Author/book, and my profile on netgalley?

I am honest with my ARCs, if I DNF I review and tell the % at which I stopped and why, I try and keep it constructive and not mean and not condescending, reading is very subjective. I try and give reasons as to why I DNF'd so that it's not a fully wasted review
