First of all - thank you for creating an maintaining Chirpy! I really love it.
I’ve noticed a few SEO-related issues that might impact page indexing, and I wanted to share them.
Scan of my page resulted in:
h1duplicates because the page title is put inh1tag and it appears on every page in the sidebar - because of that, posts might be treated as duplicates despite having different titles- similar issue with
h2, because "Recently Updated" and "Trending Tags" areh2 </html>,</head>,</body>closing tags are missing in the page source
Describe the solution you'd like
Headers probably shouldn't be used for common components that appear on every page. They should only be used for the contents of posts.
Closing tags - of course the solution is to add them :)

There is considerable debate online about whether the uniqueness of <H1> tags should be maintained, but so far, there are no authoritative documents confirming that multiple <H1> tags have a negative impact on SEO performance.
I'm open to this, so if you'd like to replace these seemingly redundant <H1> tags, feel free to submit a PR.

</html>,</head>,</body>closing tags are missing in the page source
These tags can be omitted, as the W3C specifications explain in detail.
