That post is from over a year ago, and didn't get much traction.

Although it was indeed posted over a year ago, 239 points is certainly traction.

Missed the old post. Thought reposts were rejected automatically (like on Reddit).

FWIW it does, although it's fussy and only works on posts in the last few days.

tbh Reddit's repost detector causes more problems than it solves (it still triggers if the original post was removed).
