I'll throw in my recommendation for Ghost if others also want to move their blog to "a site they control and a company they pay": https://ghost.org/ https://ghost.org/ They provide paid hosted services, or you can self-host it as it's free and open source (https://github.com/TryGhost/Ghost https://github.com/TryGhost/Ghost). Far better than wordpress. You write posts in Markdown. Editor is really nice.
