It blows my mind how one of the most influential software engineers, creator of linux and git, is reduced to "just a famous person like Tom Cruise who constantly negative" as if he's actually enjoying it or worse, that we shouldn't take what he has to share into consideration because he's used to express his viewpoint.

Maybe Torvalds is just as positive as he is negative and the whole reason why you think that he's someone who's "unsurprisingly negative" is because that's the content that everyone is passing around. If this was just another of his normal comments you wouldn't even see it posted.
