Is there a way to process all the comments in a subreddit since its inception?

Post Body

I need to create a list of every user that has ever commented or posted on a specific subreddit.

At the moment I am using PRAW's Subreddit.submission.stream.comments() but it only returns latest comments

I was going to use PRAW's Subreddit.hot() to go through all submissions and parse their comments but PRAW can only return up to a 1000 submissions if I am not mistaken

Next I looked into pushshift.io but it doesn't seem to be able to do that

Is there a way to retrieve all of a subreddit's comment using an API? Or do I need to "manually" (headless browser parse html tree) mine them?
