I got to know Jutta during my intern years at the publishing company #Reprodukt around the turn of the millenium. She had just translated and published Debbie Drechsler‘s “Daddy‘s Girl”, and as much as I appreciated her work, I can only share her overt enthusiasm in hindsight when imagining what an utter oddity this must have been for the cis-bro fanboy comics scene of the nineties: a woman publishing the account of a female survivor of childhood sexual abuse.

Just came home from a mourning ceremony for Jutta Harms, who died shortly before Christmas.

#Comics people know her well, though most of you may not. At least in Germany, the recent, growing acceptance of comics as an art form as well as as a platform for feminist discourse is unthinkable without Jutta laying the groundwork since the early 90‘s, tirelessly translating, curating, shepherding artists and connecting the dots of local comic scenes dispersed all over Europe.

Hey, some of these #manga-esque screentones I use in my current #comics project look pretty cool in their own right! 🙃

@tethre@cybre.space It sure does!

Ooh I'm such a nerd, I really love it when there's a narrative element to something very technical.

Like quoting Hans Christian Andersen's „Snow Queen“ by naming the custom ROM for Kai OS-based phones “Gerda OS”!

Quote from the website:
“Our mission is to liberate the heart of Kai.”

Genius, down to its snowflake logo.❄️

3.) And last but not least, you can always go to a @cryptoparty@mastodon.earth near you, bring a phone and will probably find someone who will help you flash it with an open OS like /e/ or #Lineage for free.

You can find those e.g. in London @CryptoPartyLDN, Berlin @cryptoparty_berlin or Toulouse @Cryptoparty@mastodon.tetaneutral.net – just have a look at https://www.cryptoparty.in/parties/upcoming for upcoming events.

Good night, and good luck! 🤓

2. ) De-Googled Android: @gael|s /e/ foundation sells its user-friendly open-source Android OS preinstalled on refurbished phones at https://e.foundation/e-pre-installed-refurbished-smartphones/

P.S.

If you feel like you'll never have the time or skills to flash a phone but crave an alternate, Google-free phone, you have the following three options (I'm aware of) atm:

1.) Sailfish OS: apart from the odd already flashed device on Ebay et al, you can go to the shop at https://jolla-devices.com and see what's in stock (not too much atm, but Xperia 10 is on the horizon and will be available through this page);

Well, it's done – I flashed my first phone!

Had some ups and downs, but these things always have.

(The Jolla documentation is actually pretty good and complements Sony's where it gets fuzzy.)

Bottom line: if I can do it, _you_ can do it!
