I'm looking for this answer as well, did you ever find a solution?

FYI, this has nothing to do with Unity.
VS Code can hide any type of file regardless of framework, engine or project as @seckincengiz has shown you in their answer.

Open your user settings under File/Preferences/Settings or you can use the shortcut "CTRL + Comma" then add a file exclude for .meta files like this:

 "files.exclude": {
         "**/*.meta": true
       }

If you also want to prevent those files to show up when you search for a keyword, add the same code to "search.exclude": {}

Thanks, voted up. Is there a way to do the same in visual studio?
