Metrics like DR and DA can help but they should not be the only deciding factor real traffic, niche relevance and a clean link profile usually matter more.
A natural placement on a trusted site is often more valuable than a high score.

I think the most important thing is that the backlink must be placed on a reputable website. There's a huge difference between a backlink from a reputable site and a backlink from an unknown site on the internet.

As long as the resource is somewhat relevant and credible, I am generally open to it.

Metrics like DR and DA can help, but they should not be the only deciding factors look at the website’s niche, content quality, organic traffic, and link profile first.
A natural-looking backlink from a strong site usually brings better long-term value.
