I am going to say that this sounds more like "under-appreciation", as in "I 
felt under-appreciated", than anything else.  Because of the content of this 
article: 
https://cloudstreet-dev.github.io/What-We-Lost-When-Unix-Won/ch01-what-won.html 
.  It very convincingly argues that making sure an os is ported to new software 
is vital for it's survival, which makes people like you, and the work you were 
doing, of incredible value. [It also claims, very emphatically, that Unix has 
won, and everybody might-as-well accept that, so in that sense, it's a rather 
depressing read, so people should approach it with caution.  (I happen to 
disagree, or view it as reverse-psychology)]
