You are late by 582 days [1]. Looks like the duplicate filter missed the duplication because of https vs. http.
I wonder if the duplicate filter should be changed to consider https and http equivalent? Are there sites that serve different content on URLs that differ only that way?
That's so long ago that likely a lot of people here haven't seen it.
You can complain about reposts within a short timespan, but, really, reposts over the span of several years, or even several months, are irrelevant if their content is genuinely interesting. You have too much spare time if such reposts really bother you.
