Submitted this a while back to the Lemmy GitHub issues, thought I would post it back here to possibly grab traction/start a discussion on it

    If this solves seeing the same person posting the same article multiple times and each showing on the feed, then that’s a great idea.

      Thats already handled by lemmy ui currently. The same link posts will collapse into the same one

      Just isn’t supported by some frontends since its a frontend specific feature (mostly the apps)

      Comments merging isn’t supported though but the post mirrors can be toggled between relatively easily
