I am not so sure abt dna testing they like to use really over dramatic words like 'more accurate' when testing is estimates

My DNA results from 0.95 version was 54.9% Mesoamerican & Andean, 17.3% Scandinavian, 6.5% East European, 5.6% Baltic, 4.0% Ashkenazi Jewish, and 7.8% Nigerian 2.2% Sierra Leonean. &1.7% North African.

Which is roughly A-bit over one half indigenous Latin American(Amerindian), one third north-east-northeast European and then around 11.7% (abit off but the percentage is not precise. Its just a conclusion they like to package. But so it is.)

New version Its roughly about 23.1% Mexican.... 19.0% Northern central American...... 3.2% Ecuadorian.... 2.0% Chilean.... 9.1% Scottish&Welsh, 7.6%....Spanish, catalan and basque, 5.1%irish, 4.1% breton, 3.9% english, 2.7% portuguese, 2.1% french. DANISH 1.1%??? Germanic 1.0%...... 6.7% Central African, 4.7% Nigerian, east African 2.4%. 2.2% West African.

Roughly for this version about 47.3% indigenous Latin American. (they sliced the other seven percentage  into Spanish, Catalan and basque....   And Portuguese maybe as well. For the socttish and welsh... I dont really know where but could have had alot to do with colonialism on my African side way back cuz of the last name 'shooks' which comes from my grandpa is side. And they are French and German too but the scandi dropped to 1% and Nigerian to 4.7%... If anyone got these results I would not fully agree for few factors to the indigenous part it is respectfully the algorithms being incompetent and. Slapping on mexican cuz that's not true my family was fortunate to know where they came from which id north central american so it would accurately be 0.95v which is more accurate and i would care less if myhertiagedna told me i was wrong cuz no i ain't cuz iknow my family stories and history & respectfully I would stand on the firm belief that groups do have certain looks for many different factors

But it is still diverse always cuz life is beautiful that way but for the v0.95 I am 100% positive it is more clearer and more recent then the new result cuz of all the tension from myhertiagedna is over hypothesis of dna estimates and tryna be more precise. I come with concern of the overestimates pointing to favoring Celtic and west European to some what Greek... I feel like this tryna pin point the exact location of whereabouts kinda leaves people grieving and sad and respectful not really nice thing to do to loads of people who rely on u. I would think the clusters are more better and more of a positive out come if myhertisge brought back 0.95v cuz it's less messy. And learning how to clarify u were only estismting old dna segments and avoid using really absolute words like 'more accurate' but instead learn to say the update going more back in ancestry and to those people out there sad just know u are ur original results not this updated version and love every part of 0.95 and feel free to claim that as the truth cuz it is respectful for me and some can related and some will say other wise but know ur all beautiful and kind and unique and nothing is ever more accurate then what u know❤
