Preventing Duplicate Uploads

Many members and myself have been hoping for a feature that prevents duplicate uploads! Would save so much time.

    Hey leylus, I hope you're doing well!

     

    Could you clarify a few things for me, such as which platform you use in order to upload content? Do you use our website, mobile app or desktop? 

     

    Also, would you like to stop the upload from happening, or maybe have the appropriate prompt to rename the files? 

     

    Keep me posted!

      Instead of giving a quick and helpful answer, you ask another question. That's exactly the manner what makes computing so damned cumbersome!
