Your setup

From source

Extra details

Ubuntu Server 22.04.1 LTS

Version

Akkoma v3.5.0

PostgreSQL version

What were you trying to do?

Just started up a new Akkoma instance (brand new database and hostname) and followed the unique and first user from my Mastodon account at mastodont.cat, with the intention of building step by step my federation.

What did you expect to happen?

I want build my federation, not be forced to receive posts from unfollowed users of unfollowed servers by the software I'm running.

What actually happened?

Look what Akkoma did, it updated the metadata of the server from the first remote follower but it started creating other servers metadata and started federating with them.
The Whole Know Network is plenty of posts from not followed remote users and not followed at all remote instances and some of them were written 6 days ago (!?)
My brand new Akkoma instance now has a lot of unknown peers that I'm not following at all or interacting with them at all.

I guess this behaviour comes from Pleroma's backend but it's really bad be unable to build the federation at will of local users.
