I think OP is being sarcastic, referring to a comment on the original Show HN for Dropbox.

This whole long thread makes me sad. Not least because I kind of find myself agreeing that tone tags do take something away from the joke. Not to say the commenter is flawed somehow for not getting the context, I didn't either right away.

I dunno, communication is hard I guess :(

That’s how I took it as well.
