If you are european, or anything else really, don't do those shitty normie DNA tests

[TsarTsar444]

Those tests are made for muricans because they are mutts from different places, imagine doing a 23 and me and seeing 60% north wester european and 40% eastern lmaooo, wasting 100 dollars for nothing. My cousin wasted 100 euros just to get 100% balkan on a dna test JFL

do a Y Dna test instead, they cost 400 euros but literally tell you every single about your ethnicity, to the level of the tribe your ancestors come from, to host of ethnic groupa you are into, and when theh diverged etc.

Useless info lmao, Neanderthal dna varies from 1-3% so it doesn't mean shit. Y dna tests show you everything

I mean I'm a "murican" of curry descent but my brother did a dna test. Apparently he is 77% south Asian, 17% central Asian, and funnily enough 5% eastern european lmao. I thought it was interesting.

Well its interesting cause you are murican thats the point, you don't have much culture so thats enough in your case. People in the balkans for instance care from what tribe you come from as well

Shit

 

[Deleted member 10913]

Shit

Why ?

 

[TsarTsar444]

Why ?

To generalized

 

[Deleted member 10913]

To generalized

What should be used then?

 

[Deleted member 8461]

They're actually all bullshit too. You can send your shit out to dozens of organizations and you'll get dozens of different results.

 

[goat2x]

Bruh one of my friends did it he turned out to be 99% balkan 1% estern european


only way its a good test if you live in central europe really

 

[goat2x]

Why ?

it is a shittier eu version of 23andme

both sell your data to covid tests etc either way

i recall reading a story that one high status criminal got caught cuz his cousin did a dna test

Then which company do you advice?

 

[sandcelmuttcel]

NO Y dna doesnt show you shit
if ur mom is the more ethnic looking(like in my case) and you want to learn, you can't get to know what it is since Y dna is paternal line only.

 

[Deleted member 13094]

the only good one in my opinion is circle dna, it gives you health related genetics and shit like that

also why would any care about your dna if your white your white if your asian your asian etc

 

[sandcelmuttcel]

also in Y dna test it will literally show your countries average haplogroups with some small variation, most probably.
JFL wasting your money at that.

 

[goat2x]

Then which company do you advice?

i mean either you accept that they will sell and share your data or you dont do it

the terms of service gives them free reign on doing whatever they want with your data

these are all private companies looking to benefit and if the govornment wants info they have to give it out

but if u wanna do it anyways myheritage is better than 23and me i mean 23andme is literally owned by google

23andMe Is Sharing Its 5 Million Clients' Genetic Data with Drug Giant GlaxoSmithKline

23andMe is sharing genetic data from its more than 5 million customers with the pharmaceutical giant.

www.livescience.com

There are also documented cases of police in the US using data from 23andMe to identify a serial rapist/murderer called the Golden Gate Killer, because their half-cousin (or something) had signed up to it and showed a partial match. Are these bad things? Depends on your perspective. Some might be fine with it, others won't be."

Did you personally ever use any of these companies? Is there one specific that you recommend?

No, my friend used 23andme but the infos are pretty good tbh

safest but least information : myheritage

most information but not that safe : 23andme

if i was to you use it aka make up my mind that the positive outweights the negative (the leaking) then i would use 23andme really its just far more accurate and you get genetic info too
