That still makes you a paid user. You are just paying for the machine/cloud instead.
I haven't used Hashnode, but it seems like a no hassle managed solution, so to me it is reasonable for them to compare themselves to the no hassle managed solution of Wordpress, not the self hosted, cobbled together version.

It's almost the opposite: the self-hosted version is literally several less steps than the hosted solution. No payments, no credit cards, just download a zip, unzip it and you're done. Remember the audience here is developers and technical folks, not regular users.
