I have to wonder if Linux would even be remembered other than as a footnote at this time without his forceful personality being in the mix.
He probably would, because he's a fairly prodigious developer working on hard problems. He was already noteworthy long before the modern era of the Internet, simply for getting early Linux working.
Being a jerk didn't create Linux and git. Hard work did.
