5% approximately this season, I'm not sure what they are, there may be, but none that I know of.... that i can visibly tell they are pred. Never seen a dive pred tail EVER.
Also, I do use the streaming anonymity modes... so no luck seeing the name....
Do you ever play with friends? Surely you see preds then?

Not sure about it. Hard to tell because random matchmaking. But never seen anyone with more than 2k kills... if displayed.Hard to tell because the lack of team mates can actually make people appear stronger than what they are. Say you engage in a fight and both randoms just pull back, you may just feel as if the fight was extremely hard, when in fact the players you were fighting were all focusing you, because you had no more team all of a sudden... so it is very situational...

"After you win a couple matches I'd think you'd see a harder lobby"https://www.eteknix.com/apex-legends-matchmaking-will-pit-cheaters-vs-cheaters/
and
I am not sure about it. I only see an increase in cheaters if I do well a couple matches.
Suppose i get couple matches, like 3 or 4 matches with 8-10 kills, after a while I get into lobbies where you have wall hackers, aimbotters etc.
There may be good players there? I do not know. All I know is that I can hide in the most remote places without moving, no hounds around, and a wraith comes by and shoots me. I could have been ANYWHERE, but they come straight where I am hiding.
Or, I pick and I'm dead in less than a second, with like 6/7 head-shots.
That goes on for a bit, like 10 or 15 matches at times even longer, until it goes back to normal up to when I do better again. These matches are usually with stats like 30 to 40 damage and 0 kills.
I would believe it could be MM adjusting.But the jump is so extreme that it is not normal. Also, the players that kill me have 0 movement, at times they struggle picking up stuff from the boxes, they are under level 100 etc. In practice, I can tell they do not have much experience with the game, but have an abnormal control of the gun, and know exactly where players are. Eventually they get erased by a g7 shooting at 300mph from across the map. Boring to watch.I do report them at times, and others I just let it go, because reports have 0 effects IMO.
So why does that happen? Because when you kill a few people you get reported. Then you are placed in an observation tank until someone gets around to inspect you. They see you are getting erased, so they move you back with the general population.
