Peple misunderstand “Closed as duplicate” as an insult, when it’s just the hint to look at the provided link. If you didn’t find the answer previously, this just means there are multiple ways to express the problem, which use different words and thus don’t all find the same google result.
But it's those people who close it as a duplicate and not post the link to a valuable answer.
You cannot even mark it as duplicate without providing a link to the answer. What are you talking about?
You can provide a link to an answer but it's invariably not to the same question.
Some times the question has no semblance at all. Other times the answer has no semblance at all. Some times there's no answer at all. And obviously, modern SO is full of people that will just post a ridiculously incorrect answer. There is a wide variety of possibilities!
I remember being very surprised as a I followed one of those links and got the answer I needed. But I don't remember exactly when.
At the very least it has some of the same words. And the person marking it as duplicate figured it was probably the same.
