Alias for List Layout

I’m in the middle of changing the blog page from /articles to a more simple /blog format. Is it possible to use Hugo’s aliases to properly 301 redirect the main List page? I have had no problem using aliases for separate posts, but am getting lost trying to figure out how to redirect the main page since /articles doesn’t have a front matter/markdown file to work with.

Thank you for any guidance you can provide.

Currently no.

Try creating /content/articles/index.md to see if you can hack together a work-around.
