Hi Dang, I hope you're well and always appreciate the context you bring to articles like this. Is there a way to turn this into a feature where similar submissions are linked?

Yes, that's what we're inching towards. See https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26158300 (but I've since written more code).

Edit: By the way, if anyone has a bright idea about how a community-driven past-thread-references feature should work (which, note btw, includes duplicate detection), I'd be interested to hear them. Emailing [email protected] is probably best.
