How is that even possible, I've never dropped below 11 boxes because I get so few keys

It's basically based on time played in matchmade games (win or lose) as far as I can tell, and then you can get them over time while idling outside of the lobby, or more practically they in a sense accumulate over time while logged out, and then you can get a bunch on login.

Basically, play the same number of games as you did previously, and the fragments will show up eventually over the course of the month, rather than immediately after the game.

Is it still win-only?

Win's aren't required anymore, just a matter of playing games.

I usually get them the next day after receiving honors the previous day, it'll be a message like "thanks for being a good sport" or something and you get a key fragment c:

Do you get a pop-up like those instant report feedback ones, just that you get a key fragment instead? Is it so that I have to idle the client to be more likely to get one? I'm so confused :(

It's a popup similar the report one! I don't idle long enough in-game for it to pop up, so it's normally the next day for me!

I got 2 already and I've been getting an average of 1-2 honors per game and 2-3 games per day.

Pretend rito is on your friends list as invisible. He spectates all of your matches for honors at the end. He will occasionally mystery gift you keys while your outside of a match.

I get at least one honor per game and I got 4 all at once the day of or the day after the new honors, and none since.

I hardly get any kays in ranked. Too many salty players after a loss and even a win so no honor.

I have been wondering this same thing. I believe the article said you could still earn 4 full keys in a month, but I don't see how, since It's five days in and I have yet to see a single key fragment drop after 4-5 daily games.
