Just the ability to micro-manage things. It's been a while so I don't remember all the differences, but with my own instance of Wordpress, I can load any plug-in or theme that I want. I also host multiple different sites from my 1and1 hosted space which is super easy to set up and configure.

For a paid service I could use a local one then anyway. As I have no clue about that subject: Besides reduced support and limited space, what could I expect to be missing from e.g. free wordpress compared to a hosted solution like 1and1?

For the vast majority of folks wordpress.com is a great solution. I chose to host with a provider so that I could micro-manage some things but not have to worry about the actual hosting part (I use 1and1). Wordpress in generally is a super simple platform that has endless customization and extensibility.

What would you suggest as hoster? I want to stay away using a facebook or google account if possible. How about wordpress.com? The free account offers 3GB. I think that should be sufficient, but I don't know how much space an average blog requires.
