This is based on 2 (two) websites. They are surprisingly accurate! You can do the tests here:
https://genomelink.io/dashboard/
https://dna.land/profile/traits/menu
Some of my results:
DNA.Land
Eye color: Likely to have brown eyes (True)
Height: Likely to be average (True)
Nearsightedness: Average eyesight (My eyesight is okay/good, so this is true I guess)
Genomelink
Earlobe size: You have a stronger tendency for smaller earlobe size (I think it's average)
Genetic weight: You have a stronger tendency for lower body weight (True)
Hearing ability: You have a stronger tendency for having acute hearing ability (My hearing is exceptionally good so this is very true)
Reading and spelling: You have an intermediate tendency for having acute reading and spelling ability (I think it's average, more or less)
There are a lot more things, but I'm not going to post all of them, these are the most interesting ones in my opinion and they nailed it in my case.

Also, some interesting stuff from yourDNAportal (https://yourdnaportal.com/yourtraits):
Hair Curl: People with your genotype are more likely to not have curly hair (True, I have straight hair)
Blond Hair and Blue Eyes: People with your genotype are unlikely to have blond hair and blue eyes, although you carry one variant and are more likely to have blue eyes. Although it is unlikely you have blond hair you are more likely to have blue eyes, you carry one copy for these traits. (Unlikely but it can occur in the family)
Eye Colour: Brown eye colour is more likely in people with your genotype, although you carry one variant for blue eyes. (Yeah on my mom's side almost everyone has brown/hazel eyes and on my father's side everyone has gray and blue eyes)
Earwax type: People with your genotype are likely to have wet earwax (True in my case)
Centenarians: People with your genotype have a better chance of living to 100 (Most of my ancestors I know passed away in their 80's, 90's but this depends on a lot of factors I think)
Smoking: People with your genotype tend to smoke heavily. (True...)
What are your results? I'm interested!

Hey Chris, are you opted into the relatives matching on YourDNAportal. What do you think of it compared to GEDmatch, commercial services, etc?

Hey Chris, are you opted into the relatives matching on YourDNAportal. What do you think of it compared to GEDmatch, commercial services, etc?
Interesting and cool stuff there! :) It just confirms all the fascinating things we can learn just by simple DNA data.
Yes, I currently take part in DNA Relatives beta, but so far I have no matches at all. From this point of view, I think GEDmatch is better because it gave me tons and tons of DNA matches. To be specific, I have lots of high confidence matches from there, just like on Myheritage. But I still have a lot of services out there which I need to try, I only have this much information about it yet. :)
I'm curious, are you asking this because YourDNAportal proved to be better for you?

New trait on Genomelink:
Out of your genetic markers for Skin Pigmentation
67% You have a stronger tendency for more skin pigmentation
0% You have genetic markers for both darker and lighter skin pigmentation
33% You have a stronger tendency for less skin pigmentation
AA Stronger tendency to get more pigmentation ★★★★ chr15 rs1834640 South Asian
Any opinions? It's kinda true I guess, I have a little darker skin but not really brown. Like a little yellowish, just a bit. But isn't this common for Pontids/Turanids? (my phenotype) I don't get the South Asian part, how do I have this gene if I don't have South Asian ancestry? (now I'm confused) I know I have many genes specific to East-Asian populations, but this is new to me (maybe it's common in both South and East Asia?)

nearly everyone is AA on that snp in europe...This is why I always check how is the percents in each populations, thats what makes it more interesting ; D
