how do I differentiate between when nietzsche is being genuine, and when he's being ironic?

Don't treat him seriously at all

Like everyone else in every critical sphere: what you respond to is serious, what you don't agree with must be satire.

reading secondary literature and/or learning german

I'm german but I still struggle, he's very vague at times

ja, aber für jemanden, der eine übersetzung ließt ist es deutlich schwerer
es gibt für jedes werk von nietzsche gute kommentarwerke, da kannst du auf jeden fall zugreifen, ich glaube niemand durchschaut nietzsche richtig ohne sekundärliteratur

Hot take but I don't think Nietzsche is a very ironic author. He can be, but it will usually be pretty obvious sarcasm. Most of the time Nietzsche is extremely sincere I find.
