It’s neither good nor bad, you can’t really draw a meaningful conclusion about total return from dividend yield.

For context though it’s probably helpful to consider the yields on other assets. The risk free return (US 10Y) is under 2%, junk bond yield is ~5% and implied equity return is ~7% so the market is suggesting that dividend is at very high risk and likely unsustainable or is mispricing it.
