In the browser, the card state is color coded. Here are, for example a couple of suspended cards: ![1](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/anki2/original/2X/9/9ebc4267ea7966854d3f3bf38d11e3290cb4a684.png) Flags are also color coded, so if we flag the first card with a red flag, we’ll get this: ![3](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/anki2/original/2X/9/9e4955714c6b1ec5738c5c83dab2f2d084852206.png) There’s a conflict and we’re losing the information regarding card state in the browser. To avoid conflicts, reduce confusion and simplify the information on the screen, I think that a dedicated flag column in the browser would work better than a color scheme for flagged cards: ![4](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/anki2/original/2X/9/9c8d9db2c8d23898bf79310e5dc2c00a1e79bfe1.png) Thanks for considering ---

I had the same annoyance! So I made an [Anki addon](https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/665856733) for it. ---
