What's the current state of Matchmaking?

In the last month and a half, I have had a lot of trouble with the matchmaking, with upto average waiting time of 3-4 minutes every time I hit join lobby, with the extreme of 15 minutes, after which I quit.trying. This is happening mostly as a survivor in a solo queue. I just want to know what's happening with the matchmaking currently and the update on the new system that was being talked about.

My lobbies fill quite literally immediately.
That's all i can say.
Ironic isn't it?
Don't you remember the threads?
Maybe killers did the same...
Yes, it's ironic.
Survivor queue times are usually quite fast, that's why people is asking what's going on (including myself, i made a thread about it too).
Also there's hasn't been any important change that nerfs survivors so...
Solo? No problems on either side.
If I get a friend to go SWF with comparable rank? Things get weird. Wait for ages to get in a lobby for a Killer that's in China, Australia or even in the US. (UK here)
Or all the kids went back to school...
From my perspective rank 1 matchmaking felt like it used to be a few days ago. Survivor hat a little bit longer queue time, and killer lobbies were filling up. Now after rank reset (r10) it seems like my killer lobbies take a couple of minutes to fill. Just strange.
I was just thinking that myself. I'll never forget that special Radiant guy clustering the forums with nonesense.
I'm not sure where he is today but if its not a mental asylum he's definitely at the wrong place.
The only problem with old matchmaking was that it prioritised newer lobbies over the older ones, which I always found stupid. So easy to end up in a lobby with 2 or 3 Survivors for eternity. Hopefully the new matchmaking will take care of this.
Probably a fan of the one who shall not be named.
Waaahhh you are just another killermain trying to get more buffs for ez 4ks
Recently I've been unable to find games fast.. whether it's swf or not. The other day we had 4 games in 2 hours, today 1 game found in 25 minutes. It's getting impossible to play.
I actually did come to the forum to find some information if there currently is some "special" reason why match making seems longer than usual like during Halloween.
Yesterday after rank reset on PS4 as solo survivor I observed 3-4 minute queues.
As Killer the lobby filled with 4 survivors within mostly less than 30 seconds.
Playing survivor again later in the night the waiting times improved but I started to observe some very weird parings.
Examples:
4 survivors level 11-13 and one killer at 18. (???)
2 survivors at 17-18. 2 survivors at 11-13 and one killer at 17.
1 survivor at 13. 3 survivors at 17-18 and one killer at 17.
. . .
Who's @Radiant ?
Better finally!
Good thing is, if you play both sides, you won't have to wait long. Since you can just switch to the side with instant filled lobbies.
