Thoughts on reneging?

I'm a fresh graduate looking for jobs now, and I'm seeing online that reneging us generally frowned upon and apparently could cause a lot of damage to ones professional reputation. Situation: I've got a job offer that is kinda meh but I don't know if I can even get another in this job market. I am supposed to start in July but the offer needs to be accepted/declined in 1 weeks time. What's the realistic outcome of continuing to interview even though I've already accepted one job? I see plenty of sources discrediting this practice but I honestly don't see that much impact aside from “professional reputation” being breached and the company losing time to replace me. Appreciate your insight on this!
