And this happened to all Hungarians, because we have nothing in this update...
(also Bulgarians and Austrians)

Yeah, without a Hungarian region the algorithm is forced to pick the next best fits.

Here's my sister's results... Hungarian is the paternal side, as I think you know.

My AncestryDNA results were absolutely tremendous, absolutely tremendous, some German some Scottish, really the best. I mean, the accuracy, it was incredible. But Melania, she was whining about her results, whining and complaining, and I don't know what she's whining about, I really don't. I get Slovenia and Slovakia mixed up all the time, I really do, and it really angers her, believe me. Anyway, my DNA is the best DNA, the best DNA, my doctors told me they've never seen a body kill the coronavirus like mine, it's incredible, absolutely incredible.

Obviously, it couldn't catch the Romanian contribution - also in parent 1 / parent 2 is visible that it cannot assign properly Romanian.

Btw, some people from Romania and Bulgaria to compare how homogeneous or not the results are (these results are in yellow below):

I posted an explanation in my AncestryDNA sub, but I am pretty disappointed with the update it was underwhelming IMO. I don't hate it as much as the 23andme update though.

The old model was better at it. Must be a bad time for the DNA industry.

I completely agree, never have I felt as much that these DNA website updates were going in the wrong direction or as sloppy as they ever have been.
