Huh…. Something I hadn’t considered until now about the Fediverse, are these single-user instances.

Theoretically they could keep making new ones to troll or harass, right? Is there anything to be done preventatively? Or is it more keeping an eye out and defederating as needed?

You need a domain name to run a Fediverse instance, which costs money, which should hopefully be enough of a deterrent.

For admins out there, does Lemmy support "wildcard" defederations like *.federated.fun?
