Config to ignore/hide select files and folders - Feature archive - Obsidian Forum
Excellent news! When can us normal, Android app users expect this feature to come down to our humble devices?
Ignore/exclude completely files or a folder from all obsidian indexers and parsers - Feature requests - Obsidian Forum
