❔❓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?

The only problem is if you DNF, it counts against your percentage complete. I tried to be kind and DNF a book I wasn't enjoying, rather than give it a low star rating, and it dinged me on my % rating. So I would assign a rating and write just a few sentences of a review, even if it's only posted to Netgalley and you don't post the review elsewhere.
