Is there a Discourse feature to mark posts as duplicates? We often see the same questions asked over and over by new users. It would be nice to have something similar to StackOverflow.

Example:

> [@Questions about a starting language, is Julia good (enough)](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/questions-about-a-starting-language-is-julia-good-enough/119731/9):
>
> This is a question that has come up repeatedly on this forum. See the previous discussions, for example: [Can i start out with Julia as my 1st coding language](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/can-i-start-out-with-julia-as-my-1st-coding-language/115663)[Julia as first language](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/julia-as-first-language/104383)[Learning Julia for scientists who are beginning programmers](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/learning-julia-for-scientists-who-are-beginning-programmers/108638) My answer is that it doesn’t matter much — learn whatever you have easy access to, because you’re going to want to learn additional languages anyway: [Can i start out with Julia as my 1st coding language - #5 by stevengj](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/can-i-start-out-with-julia-as-my-1st-coding-language/115663/5)
