I think ACX is ahead of LW here. In October, it got 7126 comments in 14 posts, which is over 1600/week. (Two of them were private with 201 between them, still over 1500/week if you exclude them. One was an unusually high open thread, but still over 1200/week if you exclude that too.)
In September it was 10350 comments, over 2400/week. I can’t be bothered to count August properly but there are 10 threads with over 500 comments and 20 with fewer, so probably higher than October at least.
Not too far separate though, like maybe 2x but not 10x.
(E: to clarify this is “comments on posts published in the relevant month” but that shouldn’t particularly matter here)
