If you create the same note (a note with the same title and in the same folder) too quickly, a duplicate note will be created with the same name.
When using the default shortcut Ctrl+Alt+D
to create today's note, you should wait more than 10 seconds before using the shortcut again, or it will create a duplicate note. This is because Joplin needs around 10 seconds to build the note's index - it should be found after about 10 seconds.
