What is this 'cloud only' icon?

I have a file in my Dropbox folder on my Mac that has a "cloud only" icon next to it (see screenshot). What does it mean? It's not one of the icons mentioned at https://help.dropbox.com/sync/macos-sy...

Can you check if your version is uploading files from the finder correctly? Thats also not working for me right now.

Yes, uploading is working for me. I just created a file, put it in ~/Library/CloudStorage/Dropbox on my Mac and confirmed that it's visible at dropbox.com.

bri_guy , how much files do you have in your dropbox right now? I have more than 800K currently and it looks like it has quite some problems handling this amount.
