The problem is that LessWrong runs on the Reddit platform.

That platform is in Python with some plugins that aren't easy to install. It's not like installing Wordpress on your Php based hosting.

The platform is also structured in a way that makes it hard to update the code in case of bugfixes because you have to make custom code change for your own website.

If you wanted a solution that get's widely used the best way would be to write a Wordpress plugin.
