they do. 23andme exagurates your main admixture and decreases your minor ones.
it's because of this:

this is the same person on 23andme and k13:

So? We didn't mixed with them, we have lived in our homogeneous villages, separated from them. There was always deep despise and hate between Croats and Serbs for generations.
I don't have hardly any Croatian matches in Gedmatch. In fact, I have even few Albanians, but Croats less than that.
I don't know. I don't question your ethnic determination, but it's interesting because I cluster with Croats, Bosnians and some Slovenes everywhere from 23andme to MyHeritage, Davidski's Global 25 sheet, and old Eurogenes samples.
I'm usually quite far from Serbs, who cluster with non-Moldavian Romanians, but with amateurishly collected samples, it seems that Serbs have suddenly become Croatian-like. Kind of makes one wonder what's happening.
^^^^Ion, I think uncomfortable truth is dinaric Slavs are very similar people, apart from Montenegrins who have stronger Albanian influence observable in their YDNA and autosomal.
I really want no similarity with Serbs, but it's quite obvious from tons of shared surnames and matching those aren't pretty different.
I would say NW Croats and SE Serbs form clusters on their own, former being west-slavic like and later being east balkan like, but others are quite similar including Bosniaks who descend from both.
Here is South Croat average I composed out of academic Split Croats, Morlach and Slavic cluster.

I wonder about Serb samples used in academic papers, not speaking about gedmatch, those are really very different from Croats and even Bosniaks and much more Balkan.
