Hi all, first time posting. I've tried googling a bit but its not totally clear to me. Say I have servers A, B, C, and D.

Can servers A and B federate, and then separately C and D federate?

If so, can A B and C be federated, but separately C and D be federated, so D is not recognized as federated for A?

If A, B, C, and D are federated, and it becomes apparent that D is a bad actor, how does D become defederated?

I feel like these kinds of situations are critical to ensure long term success. I really appreciate any answers anyone can provide!

It's tricky. But I keep thinking that 'bad servers' bring similar issues to those of bad actors on 'good servers'....

Not sure how they might approach it - or what exactly is even available now. I should probably stand up a lemmy server just to have a poke around 🫣.
