WordPress.com isn't self-hosted, it's the freemium cloud version comparable to Wix and Squarespace.

Automattic isn't making any money on the open-source version that can be hosted anywhere.

You’re right, that distinction’s very important. I’d never recommend WordPress.com, I’m just a fan of Wordpress the OSS.
