Commonmark includes # header formatting which emits h1-6 tags, but these shouldn't be allowed in posts. An acceptable solution may be to simply replace usages of these tags with bold paragraphs instead, or to simply not process them into HTML entirely. (I'd imagine that there's some special formatting to avoid converting hashtags into headers, so, maybe that could be leveraged here.)
Motivation
Header tags mess with the document outline and thus mess with screen readers, and people are using them to simply emphasise their text, which is not their purpose. I also wrote a larger post about this which may have more insight into this in the replies: https://toot.cat/@clarfonthey/112911895092049070
