    Why would you think G25 is more accurate when it models you as Dutch or Norwegian + Spanish? You know you're not those things so why would you think it?

    I really wish that Ancestry would just separate Irish and Scottish like Living DNA though, then it might force you to be confronted with the fact that you're probably half Irish or something.


    Is this still the case? Would you agree that 2018 era (pre-recent updates) was also better than modern G25 ? Thanks

    AncestryDna is good at find ur ancestry but not AMAZING, its just good but not in 23andme level (dont even have haplogroups if u care)
    While g25 can be good if ur Raw data is decent, but ill mostly say to where u are closer to, i am ~45% Portuguese & Galician with a minor Valenican and castillian, 45% SSA, 7% MENA and 3% NAtive, but i am closer to 36% Basque + rest of my caucasioid begin MENA, which donts mean i am Basque, just means i have most similarities with a 36% Basque (bcs i have more WHG) than a 45% Galician, but in general i find g25 more accurate, u just need be able to interpretation.
    More Details about my Bahian & Portuguese ancestry:
    Spoiler!
