@Vince42, It is important to realise that a page's Markdown (+ frontmatter) and the page's template are working in tandem to generate a desired output.
In other words, If you change the Markdown layout (by adding a title to the summary), you might need to change the template and visa versa.
In the case of Quark's blog functionality, by design, the summary section in Markdown is expected not to contain a title. The title (and optional subtitle) should be provided in the frontmatter of the page using title and subtitle.
Looking at the online demo of the Blog skeleton, both the blog item list card and the blog item page are looking good to me and both show a title.
Note that the blog item (item.md) does not contain a title inside the summery section of the Markdown.
The blog post itself does by default not render the title of the blog post
I don't understand this comment and the screenshot of the blog item. It seems you have edited the hero block in item.html.twig.
Again, when looking the the online Blog demo, the title (from the frontmatter) is clearly shown in both layouts.
Maybe the inventors of the Quark theme did not find it necessary to inform the reader about the title
I don't think any sarcasm is justified here. I have the impression that the inventors of the Quark theme are highly experienced and know what they are doing. Also I don't recall having seen a similar complaint before.
but I had a lot of complaints
Maybe the inventor of your site... ;-)
