I just published “Managing Heading Levels In Design Systems”https://medium.com/p/managing-heading-levels-in-design-systems-18be9a746fa3 …
Hah, nice title :)
I meant if you want to display the site name visually. e.g., header of a blog with the name of the person that the blog belongs to. A common dilemma: is that the h1 and all article titles h2s? Doesn’t feel right. But hierarchy-wise site name is higher…

Oh right! No, the visual site name would probably be the logo/text as the first link of the navigation region (or similar). In other words, the logo could be prominent, but not he <h1>.
-
Gotcha: because the visual hierarchy doesn’t have to mirror the semantic hierarchy and the page heading has semantic precedence over the site name. Makes perfect sense; merci.

In addition, as per HTML5, it's totally cool to have multiple <h1> tags when there's one in each <article> tag on a page. :)https://youtu.be/WsgrSxCmMbM

Last I checked though, assistive technology still doesn't parse multiple H1s, has this changed for the better now?
-
Nope. It has not.
-
Figures. They do as best they can, we really need to build better web quite frankly and educate clients about content management more
-
It's really more that the browsers don't support the outline algorithm. But yeah, more folks need to know about sound document structures.
