I present mine in a deliberately minimalist way, though you could choose to style them identically to on LW. The main downside to this approach is that people have to click through to LW to vote or comment.
There is remark42 (what I use currently) which is a plug and play comment system with upvotes and users and loads of auth. It doesn’t have karma but I believe it would be trivial to implement, it has the problem of not supporting CSS, but again, fairly trivial to implement (or, at least, simpler than modifying LW).
So probably having a semi-static blog + a remark42 mod as a comment system would replicate the effect (and that’s what I might go for)
Most blogs have comment sections that would be much improved by LW style karma. It’s also not something that can be easily gotten by a simpler engine.
It is possible to have the LW comment section while hosting your own blog; that’s what I do.
For example, the comments shown on https://www.jefftk.com/p/heel-and-toe-drumming are the comments on the LW crosspost (https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/fBf3MFi3iFEY4AN44).
