This is something I've never been able to figure out, since Apple moved away from iTunes device sync, and put subscription directly on iOS devices: Is there a way to set the iPhone Podcasts app up so that it does no on-device subscription / following, while having the Mac app (iTunes or Podcasts) subscribing and downloading shows, then syncing them across via iTunes / Finder?

I've disabled the "sync library" in Podcast settings on the iPhone, so if I unfollow / unsubscribe a show on the phone, will that leave the subscription intact on the Mac?
