What is text deduplication?

Text deduplication is the process of removing duplicate lines, words, or sentences from text content to clean and organize data.

What's the difference between keeping first vs last occurrence?

Keeping first occurrence preserves the first instance of each duplicate and removes subsequent ones. Keeping last occurrence preserves the final instance and removes earlier ones.

Does case sensitivity matter?

Yes, you can choose. With case-sensitive mode, 'Hello' and 'hello' are treated as different. With case-insensitive mode, they're considered duplicates.
