I’ve noticed the last couple weekends that survivors wake up around noon. Until then, queue times.

The number of people playing the game does not determine queue times alone. Regions, time of day, rank, and role all play a part in that too. In this case, you might be having long queue times as a red ranked killer because there are a lot of other red ranked killers playing in your area at the time. Or there might just not be a lot of red ranked survivors playing in your area at the time if you're playing in off-peak hours for your region.

at 22K players i have instant/less than 2 minutes queue times, still makes no sense to me, if there's even more people playing i should get games even quicker, if at 22K i have intsant lobbies, makes no sense i wait 10 minutes with 50K

My guess is the games you used to find are now being given to rank 15/20 killers who are back for the bloodrush.

Same here. I tested survivor and it's immediate, but I got paired with green ranks.

Again, the total concurrent player count is not the only number that matters here. Yes, there's more people playing overall, but that doesn't mean that there's an even distribution of people between the two roles. You need four survivors for each killer (4:1). If there's more killers playing than expected (4:3, for example), then suddenly there's not enough survivors to fill everyone's lobbies. In that case you'll have to wait for other people's matches to finish and for their survivors to requeue before your lobby can fill up.
Also keep in mind that the concurrent player count is worldwide. There may be a lot of people playing somewhere, but there may not be a lot in your region.

50k players. Tell there are 10k Killer & 40k Survivor
Split into 5 difference rank. 2k Killer & 8k Survivor
Split into 4 region (6h play time a day). 500 Killer & 2000 Survivor
Even if you & me are in the same time region, doesnt mean you & me play the game at the same time. Should drop the players play at a time to 50%. 250 Killer & 1000 Survivor
Not so much anymore if MM works exactly as they're intended to be.

I'm a rank 3 survivor and have been playing with my friends who are also red rank (1,3) and the queue times have been instantaneous. Although its been quick, a lot of them have been green rank killers. I feel like this is the case just because so many people are playing killer rn for BP. When I queue for killer as a rank 8, the queue times have been 5-15 min everytime.
