Since Last Update (18-19th) Active Players is Wrong in Search, But Correct in View Creator’s List

What Type of Bug are you experiencing?
Other
Steps to Reproduce
Go into Fortnite, Search for your Map, Then search View Creator list of maps
Expected Result
I expect them to be the same
Observed Result
In search it is showing active players being 1 or 2 while in reality there are none in the map, if you go to your island creator website or view creator in game you will see the real numbers
Faking the number of players in a map is not the way, it further deceives the consumer/player.
If you want to help us and fix this, the issue is the REGIONAL LOCKED server/lobby system. When a player sees 3 players they expect to play with those 3 players in a map, they NEVER go into a map with 3 players because of the servers being regionally locked.
Faking this number only makes this issue worse. Give us the ability to have NOT REGIONALLY LOCKED server/lobbies
What is going on here? My Fortnite page shows 0 players, Fortnite gg shows 0 players, the website shows 0 players..
Yet.. here is my Fortnite page and me comparing a few of the search result’s versions of my map, when i search the map these are the ccu that i see which are completely just wrong.. I am pasting it on top of the map that on my fortnite page shows no players as well as showing my page at the time had no players on fortnite gg etc
Especially interested in knowing why this is happening because FNCreate is controlling search results now by putting maps with higher numbers above maps that in most cases almost entirely meet what the player searched, while the maps with higher player counts don’t nearly come close to what the player searched
