Sismics Reader is a popular web-based RSS reader that helps you keep track of your favorite websites and blogs. This tutorial will guide you through the process of installing Sismics Reader on Ubuntu Server.
Before installing any new software, it's recommended to update your Ubuntu system packages to the latest versions. This can be done by running the following command in the terminal:

Once the download is complete, extract the downloaded package with the following command:
tar -xvf reader.tar.gz
This will create a new directory called reader in the current directory.
You can now start the Sismics Reader by navigating to the reader directory and running the bin/run.sh script:
