In my downtime, I’m into photography, music making, and riding motorcycles — anything that gets me thinking or moving.
Announcing #Mangatsu
The new decentralised web app for manga and comic enthusiasts is officially live. Built from the ground up to support creators and readers directly on open protocols.
- Read seamlessly with an optimised reader screen
- Integrated NWC for instant creator zaps
- Decentralised media storage via Blossom
- Manage your personal collection with NIP-51 library lists
- Robust offline mode so you never lose your place
Check it out now:

GitHub - imattau/qDHT: A DHT implementation of the concept derived from the Quantum Relay (Nostr)
A DHT implementation of the concept derived from the Quantum Relay (Nostr) - imattau/qDHT
Working through a qDHT idea.
It started from the quantum relay work in rely, then drifted into a DHT-style discovery model.
I’m not trying to replace Mainline DHT. This is a different approach.
Classic DHT: query by key → route through keyspace → find providers.
qDHT: signed announcements → local neighbour-state → discover routes, replicas, or pieces.
The idea is that each node only keeps a small view of the network. Those views overlap, so discovery can move through the graph without every node needing a global routing table.
The quantum-inspired part comes from the relay model: local propagation using the graph Laplacian / continuous-time quantum walk idea.
One useful finding from testing: direct query routing did not work well. Announcement propagation looks much more promising.
Current model:
- identities announce current routes
- content announces hashes and piece metadata
- nodes remember which neighbours exposed them to each announcement
- replicas form when content is fetched
- clients retrieve from nearby replicas
- rejoining nodes ask neighbours for missed deltas
- reputation damping reduces spam propagation
The main idea is pretty simple:
qDHT uses propagation history as routing state.
Small local views. Overlap between them. Signed records. Demand-driven content fetch.

Trying again to see if the quantum relay announces the post...
Relay testing... wss://quantum-relay.3nostr.com
Built a quantum-inspired propagation layer for Nostr relays.
The problem -> clients publish to 20 relays just to ensure reach. It's wasteful and spam hits everywhere simultaneously.
The idea -> relays form a mesh and intelligently pull notes from each other. A note published to one relay can reach relays the author never knew existed.
Spam from low-reputation pubkeys never propagates beyond where it was posted.
The relay mesh self-organises - no central coordination, no shared blocklists. Reputation diffuses naturally across the network.
Built on rely v2. Code on GitHub (quantum branch).

Hello World #nostrbt
take 2? trying again
Message from the CLI - hoping to see in the web client
This is from the BT client
