Dukagjini's MyHeritage Results (23andme Raw Data Transfer)

[Dukagjini]

I uploaded raw data from 23andme to Myheritage. I think this result could be fucked up because at first it wasnt working and I uploaded a lot of files, including converted files (ex. 23andme to FTDNA). But anyways here is what I got.

Somewhat similar to mine. My results are 45.6% Balkan, 45% Greek, 6.7% NW Euro and 2.7% Iberian

That was quick. When did you upload it? I uploaded my gf's raw data this morning and didn't get it processed yet.

I uploaded it several weeks ago, but I didn't check until now. I totally forgot about it.

Interesting. Every company has their own take and spin. Genetics still has a long way to go imo.

Alright, that makes sense. 23andMe V5 wasn't accepted before but they kept the log of those who had uploaded before and are releasing the results now (Myheritage as of today is now accepting uploads from 23andMe V5 and LivingDNA).

Yea they didnt do v5 yet. Thats probably why I didnt get results before.

[Shqipez]

I just get a mix of Greek and Balkan ... like 42% Balkan and 58% Greek. But I don't get NWE or Iberian but I wouldn't trust MyHeritage on that.

What you got on DNA land ?

Seems like many people from the Balkans score around 10% NW Europe on MyHeritage. I wonder why that happens.

What's your opinion on FTDNA? I ordered a kit from them and had the sample taken. It's in their lab right now and the results are to be expected in the first half of October.

They have a pretty decent autosomal report, it's accurate in most cases. Did you order Ydna as well?

You ordered their autosomal or Ydna? You can eventually do both now that they got your sample.

I think ftdna is better than MyHeritage. Later you can upload for free to many of these other free autosomal .

AncestryDNA and 23andme are also good. Ftdna and AncestryDNA go like 2000 years back supposedly, 23andme is more recent 300-500 years.

I uploaded when i got the email like 2 days ago but i have also uploaded on february when i got my 23andme v5 results.
Here it is from february upload

Have you uploaded to MyOrigins, Ftdna?

I ordered both tests: Y-37 and the Family Finder (autosomal). The autosomal results will be completed two weeks before Y-37 though...it seemed like a reliable company to me after consulting with some of my fellow people here and I'm glad to see that's the general view as well.

[IncelSlayer]

I have used a program to convert my 23andme v5 to v3 and then uploaded to ftdna, i posted my ftdna on the ftdna thread but its not that accurate this conversion going by numbers on matches and distances i get on gedmatch.

[Dukagjini]

Idk about you guys but I think if I did FTDNA I would get 10-20 percent East Euro. This all phenotypically speaking.

Yh I think ordering the Y37 and Family finder is a good choice and good combo at that

Do they not accept V5?

[IncelSlayer]

ftdna doesnt accept straight v5, i used a tool dna kit studio or something like that to convert to v3 to upload to ftdna and paid for autosomal thing, but i also uploaded on gedmatch and it gave me no matches and like 30-40% bigger distances so its defnitely not that accurate.

How did you convert? Also dont you only get matches? I think you dont get autosomal result in free transfer

Bro thanks this might work better for Geneplaza considering geneplaza sucks for v5.

i wouldnt bother with geneplaza and other stuff like this.
23andme and gedmatch its enough.

Nothing unusual and doesn't change much tbh but would be interesting to see your results none the less. If you got the money that is. Do also AncestryDNA. I'm gonna order 23andme and AncestryDNA. I've done every other one there is.

It's all just for fun.

[Shqipez]

I ordered 23andme before from ebay but they did not accept my kit and I lost my cash lol so one needs to order from their page. I agree that 23and me and gedmatch are enough.. no point looking into distant Slavic ancestry etc. Even Skanderbegs mother was Slavic. Its not something that is un-Albanian. It shows we took Slavic brides. It doesn't change much when you get over 90% Balkan on 23andme.

Every company does things differently. There is no general concensus between them all. Thats why I believe genetics has a long way to go. My GEDmatch doesn't detect much slav admix, but Gedmatch is not everything.

My origins/ Ftdna goes further back , that's what they do different. Such genes have been diluted which is why it gives 90% Balkan on 23andme , gedmatch won't detect any Slav ancestry.. not even with ftdna at max you'll get the East Europe you mentioned. It doesn't change much. As it's really not significant enough.

Or your results could end up like some others where they are totally different....

[Tschaikisten]

MH is still worst, I really can't understand why are there a lot of people from Europe tested in MH.

I doubted the FTDNA marketing behind the further back, but now I think it's true. Sucks it's very expensive rn and I'm in college buying books. This is all coming from my phenotype, and some of people in my family. I am a Malesor looking through the origin of my family... and it looks like some Malesors mixed with Montenegrins, which could explain some phenotypical differences, and traits in Montenegro Albanians that aren't prevalent in other Albanians.
