From 2,997 active users across all lemmy instances at the beginning of June, the number increased to 52,797 by June 30th. Source.

An active user on Lemmy is "someone who has posted or commented on our instance or community within the last given time frame.” Source. That means lurkers are not counted as active users.

But that's not an issue with the sign up process, so why are people complaining that it is difficult and complicated to sign up?

I agree there definitely should be somewhere that shows an infographic of how the fediverse works. I've seen this one that can be handy for people to understand.

This is great. This is what should be on page to choose an instance . A no nonsense guide that people can just read and get the concepts. I think content such as this is the way to go. People don't know or care why it is better in most cases but this gives them the gist in a minute.
