In responses within the thread, the OP actually sounds like they have a plan they intend to go through.
Regardless of whether this is genuine or not, the responses are hilarious (and interesting).

It's not bullshit, it's because of two reasons:
First, "Active last month" refers to users who have posted a comment in the last month. Every site like this has a large number of lurkers. A good rule of thumb is 10% of subscribers/users actually post/comment/participate. So 350-400k "legitimate" users sounds like the right ballpark.
Second, the numbers are so high because there has been a known bot attack. A few instances didn't have email verification/captchas enabled so it was very easy to sign up for accounts very quickly. Some instances went from 500-800 users, to 10,000 users overnight.

i pretty much consider beehaw a separate thing of its own at this point.
This post belongs in some weird limbo/union of fakehistoryporn, technicallythetruth and angryupvote.
Oh, just Let It Be.
Yes, I've been using this site for tracking too.
I'm not sure I understand your point? If you're saying that the active user : comment ratio for all other instances is off, then I think you got it the wrong way round. lemmygrad was one of the first instances to be developed, way before the reddit exodus, so their number of active users has dropped even as their comment count slowly grew over time.
