Comment:

 > So the question for me is how why the thousand separators are wrong when
 the page is first loaded?

 When the page is first loaded, it uses the site's locale for
 `number_format_i18n`, which is English here, so it loads with commas. If
 you go to https://es.wordpress.org/download/counter/, it will load
 initially with dots. The subsequent updates are pulled from the API which
 uses the user locale as @Otto42 mentioned, which is why it changes to dots
 for you (just like the Spanish site changes to commas for me).

 I've got a PR to fix that here: https://github.com/WordPress/wporg-
 main-2022/pull/555
