The Magento standard way would be to use the visibility attribute but if you have to do it with a custom attribute here's something that'll get you started, and may be all you need.

There isn't one function that can overridden to completely control product visibility but this is a good way to control the visibility of products on category pages.

etc/frontend/di.xml

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:ObjectManager/etc/config.xsd">
    <type name="Magento\Catalog\Model\Layer\Category\CollectionFilter">
        <plugin name="vendorname_modulename_catalog_model_layer_category_collectionfilter" type="VendorName\ModuleName\Plugin\CollectionFilter"/>
    </type>
</config>

Plugin/CollectionFilter.php

<?php

namespace VendorName\ModuleName\Plugin;

class CollectionFilter
{
    public function afterFilter(
        \Magento\Catalog\Model\Layer\Category\CollectionFilter $subject,
        $result,
        \Magento\CatalogSearch\Model\ResourceModel\FullText\Collection $collection,
        \Magento\Catalog\Model\Category $category
    ) {
        $collection->addAttributeToFilter('custom_attribute', 'custom_value');
    }
}

After fixing error about the above solution, I could find the solution.

The proper solution is as follow.

etc/frontend/di.xml

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:ObjectManager/etc/config.xsd">
<type name="Magento\Catalog\Model\Layer\Category\CollectionFilter">
    <plugin name="vendorname_modulename_catalog_model_layer_category_collectionfilter" type="Vendorname\Modulename\Plugin\CollectionFilter"/>
</type>

app/code/Vendorname/Modulename/Plugin/CollectionFilter

 namespace Vendorname\Modulename\Plugin;

 class CollectionFilter
 {
    public function afterFilter(
        \Magento\Catalog\Model\Layer\Category\CollectionFilter $subject,
        $result,
        \Magento\Catalog\Model\ResourceModel\Product\Collection $collection,
        \Magento\Catalog\Model\Category $category
    ) {
        $collection->addAttributeToFilter('custom_attribute', $custom_value);
    }
 }

The plugin's parameters must be $subject, $result and same parameters of Magento\Catalog\Model\Layer\Category\CollectionFilter's filter().

we can find it on vendor\magento\module-catalog\Model\Layer\Category\CollectionFilter.php

/**
 * Filter product collection
 *
 * @param \Magento\Catalog\Model\ResourceModel\Product\Collection $collection
 * @param \Magento\Catalog\Model\Category $category
 * @return void
 */
public function filter(
    $collection,
    \Magento\Catalog\Model\Category $category
) {
    $collection
        ->addAttributeToSelect($this->catalogConfig->getProductAttributes())
        ->addMinimalPrice()
        ->addFinalPrice()
        ->addTaxPercents()
        ->addUrlRewrite($category->getId())
        ->setVisibility($this->productVisibility->getVisibleInCatalogIds());
}

That's why the 3rd parameter must be as follow.

 \Magento\Catalog\Model\ResourceModel\Product\Collection $collection

The above method works, but it results in the page navigation being off.

For example, if you are viewing 12 items per page with a total of 24 results, and hide one item on the first page, the first page should show a total of 12. With this change, there will only be 11 items on the first page.
