Meta: I don't get HN's new deduplication algorithm. I submitted the same link yesterday.

I noticed similar problems with medium.com links where the stuff after the inserted hashtag leads to multple submissions of the same link.


"similar problems with medium.com links where the stuff after the inserted hashtag"

I always strip anything after the hash, checking the link still works. Medium adds this info, in my opinion, for tracking.


If you're a Chrome or Firefox user, there's an add-on that can do this for you.

Chrome: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/pure-url/mphlceppe...

Firefox: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/pure-url/


Not in this case. It's the exact same url
