Why do I see duplicate posts so often and how can we prevent this? (feddit.nl)

See attached image for example (not my post). The other day, I posted something and received an error (can't post or something along the lines). I was returned to my draft and pressed post again. This time, the post went through. However, it now turned out to be posted twice, despite the initial error message. Why does this happen so frequently with Lemmy?
