I could only come up with this convoluted query:
WITH grp (t1, id, t2) AS (
SELECT t1.txt, t1.id, t2.txt
FROM tbl t1
LEFT JOIN tbl t2 ON t2.txt > t1.txt
WHERE t2.txt IS NULL OR similarity(t1.txt, t2.txt) > 0
)
SELECT t1, min(id)
FROM (
SELECT t1, id
FROM grp
UNION ALL
SELECT t2, id
FROM grp
WHERE t2 IS NOT NULL
) dummy
GROUP BY t1
ORDER BY t1
