<p>As a part of the organizing team, I believe the 2024 camp was once again, a resounding success, just like in previous years. We successfully brought together people from various locations and countries, all united under one roof, the sky of the earth. For a few days, participants of all ages — from 4 to 74 — shared an off-time holiday-like setting. Coming from different cities and holding diverse points of views, everyone was united by a shared commitment to open software, personal freedom, environmental care, antifascism, and striving to be good people, caring for one another by sharing, exchanging and learning from everybody.<br><br>

Fedi.Camp is what people make of it. This year, we had fewer workshops and presentations, allowing more time for relaxation and holiday activities. Of course, there were still talks and discussions about several software projects connected by ActivityPub, soldering and building blinky devices, pen-and-paper sessions, cross-golf, and video presentations.<br><br>

|
||||
In the evenings, the warming bonfire was a highlight, where music broke the boundaries of language, being the one commonly shared among all people, artists and amateurs played their instruments and sang together while kids roasted marshmallows and enjoyed the fluorescent rings while others went on building objects. This again created a soothing and communal atmosphere.<br><br>

We were once again reminded of the environmental impact of nuclear power during our tour of the nearby atomic storage facility. This sobering experience highlighted the catastrophic nature of running nuclear power plants and producing waste that requires human maintenance for 10,000 years and beyond.<br><br>

Strolling through the forest, engaging in tech talks, and relaxing in the sun made this year's Fedi.Camp truly charming. The unique combination of activities and wonderful participants created an unforgettable experience.<br>

<h4>Insight on network infrastructure</h4>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>At 'KABI Fancy Media and Communication,' we once again, built the camp's network infrastructure. Given the lack of reliable mobile coverage and inadequate village infrastructure, there is typically no usable internet connection at the camp site.<br><br>
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
So, we stepped in to ensure connectivity for all. We utilized a combination of Starlink and Vodafone 5G for data uplink. Despite a brief period of heavy rain when even the 5G connection dropped, the internet remained fast and reliably stable.<br><br>
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
All traffic was routed through our datacenter infrastructure for sanitizing incoming traffic and ensuring privacy. This connection was then distributed using Ubiquiti Cloud Gateway Ultra hardware to form the local network. We deployed a 10.0.0.x IP range net to support up to 512 devices, though we had about 78 concurrent users. Participants brought their cars, phones, laptops, smartwatches, etc. all may require a connection, so it was best to be prepared. The signal was transmitted through a POE (Power over Ethernet) switch and distributed to six Ubiquiti Nano HD access points with WiFi-roaming, providing seamless connectivity as people walked around the camp site. This setup involved approximately 450 meters of Cat6 cables, rain covers, countless cable ties and a few additional POE injectors for the farthest access points to reach a 99.9% coverage of the whole camp site, houses and fireplace.<br><br>
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
In total, we facilitated about 790 gigabytes of internet traffic during the camp. It was fun building it and watching the traffic roar.</p>
