I am really confused by the communication thread and am interpreting that the toddler is somehow in charge of running the infrastructure as a joke. Yet I can’t see it as either a joke or serious.

I’m a native English speaker but sometimes I swear I’m losing grasp on communication in the Internet age and am sincerely trying to understand this all.

The joke is that the toddler is for future maintenance, not now.
My toddler runs https://rangerovers.pub and it mostly holds up okay. He's not great at yaml because he can't really read so the significant whitespace is a problem, but he knows how to run the backups and ensure the mail handler isn't choking on all the Russian spammers. We try to limit his screen time though so he's only on for the 15-minute maintenance window. The Aprilscherz frontend for Docker is a big help.
