I'm using a poor translation from Spanish so I may not be reading the post correctly, but I thought the explanation was pretty reasonable although I do not understand Fediverse culture.

It sounds like Fediverse users expect their conversations to be private and constrained by some terms of service (specific to each Fediverse node?). Are their posts made public, or only gated behind logins like a private forum? Having public posts that are constrained may be incompatible with the natural tendency of how information flows.

About the issue of mostro's keys - we've briefly discussed this in the past, but I now wonder if it's possible for Mostro to share the relevant private keys with the original profile owners on demand (although I'll need to brush up on HD security - how/will key derivation need to be hardened here to avoid revealing all keys)?

If possible, this is still not ideal given that Mostro will continue hold the shared private key (and needs to be trusted), but at least the original profile can now also post on nostr (maybe gradually migrate to a new more secure key pair). Mostro can also update its bridging rules for that particular profile (eg it can stop mirroring posts or delete them etc). I'm just "brainstorming ideas while ignorant" here...
