Ancestry 2023 Update Hack??

[drb234]

Redditors on the AncestryDNA subreddit have made this "hack" for the new update, it seems to only work for a few people though. Maybe it is bullshit. Try it and see if it works for yourselves
https://www.reddit.com/r/AncestryDNA...orary_website/

Method I found:

⁠Log in to your Ancestry account and go to DNA story

⁠In a separate tab, copy and paste https://www.ancestry.com/dna/origins...s?version=2022 but don't open it yet (you will need to change .com to whatever your country is if you are not in the US)

⁠Replace ENTER_CODE_HERE with your DNA code from Ancestry and hit Enter. You should get a long list of code.

⁠In a new tab, open https://dnplay.github.io/ancestrydna

⁠Select all the code (CTRL+A) and copy (CTRL+C) and paste (CTRL+V) it into the dnplay.github site

Can't wait for it to tell me I am 94.90% English instead of 94.89%.

(This is with the old 2022 hack)

I heard they added a new region in the Balkans and expanded some other European areas. It will be interesting to see how this affects people's results.

Mine hardly changed, it gave me slightly less Irish and slightly more Scottish. Meh. It's starting to feel like commercial DNA testing is hitting a plateau in advancement and accuracy.

In general I agree I think the updates from DNA companies aren't as phenomenal as they were years ago anymore. I at least hope they still try to add new features.
