If you look at your profile from another instance, your user history there will only contain stuff that that instance is federated with. Users looking at your profile wont see comments and posts you've made onto communities that aren't federated onto the instance they are looking at your profile from.

One comment onto an instance that federates with threads would leak that one comment, not your entire user account's worth of data.

It's still bullshit.
