Bump.

A different user recently posted a very similar suggestion here - https://podcastaddict.uservoice.com/forums/211997-general/suggestions/45963946-mark-not-interested-for-episodes
This new one is already gaining some votes. So just bumping for the sake of the community :)

For every podcast I listen to I have a use case for this. One podcast has occasional substitute hosts which I never listen to, one podcast does terrible live shows, one podcast does reruns for some reason, one podcast does animated versions of the audio podcast that I never watch, and plenty of podcasts do clip shows, repeats, or minor updates.

At the moment, I leave these episodes unplayed so that when I'm going back through I know that I skipped it the last time, but this means the 'Unplayed Counter' and 'played' features go unused for me. If I could hide ignored episodes completely or mark them as ignored AND played, that would be fantastic.

So often, I want Podcast Addict to "treat this episode as if it's been played", while trying to remember myself that I haven't actually listened to it, in case I decide to go back to it later.

"Ignored", as a "Treat as Played (but I know it's not)" flag, would be amazing.

And it would be great if could be "set to ignored from this episode" - in the episode list, like the readed episodes flag works.

I agree, at this moment we have played / unplayed labels, but we need also and ignored status that we can use to mark episodes we're not interested

This is definitely needed. I don't want to mark a huge batch of episodes as "played" when I haven't actually listened to them, but may want to in the future. I like seeing episodes from oldest to newest and when I start a new Podcast focused on current events, I don't want to have to scroll through years worth of content that I might be interested later, but not now.

Bump, this kind of feature would be an amazing addition to an already amazing app!

I would like this too.

There are podcast that I’m going through from the beginning and the new episodes when they come out. I’d like to hide these podcasts when I hit the eye icon.

I don’t mind another way to achieve this, but I do think this way would be the most versatile for people.

Great app.

I agree! I came here to request this exact feature! Another possible tag could be "skipped."

I came here to suggest this too, a podcast I love occasionally does serial killer episodes which I never want to hear.

Dang, I came here looking for exactly this functionality, hoping it already existed. I end up leaving many of my podscasts' archives marked "unplayed", since I'll likely get to them at some point. Unfortunately this basically nullifies the usefulness of the Unplayed Counter. What I came here to suggest was adding some kind of time constraint to the counter (like, have it only count episodes from the previous X months). But an "ignored" flag seems like a better solution.

(This program is amazing! Such control!)

Yeah, I'd use this a lot. When I start listening to a podcast, I'll go back and listen to SOME of its history, but not binge the entire archive yet. Once I'm "caught up", it'd be nice to know which episodes I actually listened to, and which ones I just bypassed.

yes, distinguishing between episodes i want to skip and ones i have listened is a good idea
