Sorry, I don’t mean the link text itself, but the destination shown in the status bar in the bottom left of my desktop browser.

Sorry for the slow reply, but it was a link on LinkedIn and I’m using chrome. It’s frustrating as I use the status bar to check the link is the same as the text before clicking it.
I have tried to use the open source CAD programs, but they never worked that well for me.
SketchUp is good, for what it is, but again it’s never been for me.
If you want 2D like AutoCAD then I have found SolidEdge from Siemens to be good. There is a free version, and I think a paid one too. I only used the 2D version but a quick search just now seems to show a community edition of the 3D too.
Schools have a duty of care to their students and there are plenty valid reasons to not want your face on the internet. E.g children who have been adopted from abusive families, threats made to children or their parents etc.
You can be polite about it and not confrontational. Just tell them that you’re unable to provide further information on it at the moment, but that you need them to take any photographs of you off the internet and refrain from posting anything in the future.
Let them fill in the blanks with whatever story they want.
Glad I’m reading this on Lemmy. Well, “glad” isn’t the right word, but you know…
I always check the status bar but I actually noticed the other day on LinkedIn or maybe Facebook, that the status bar said one thing, but the link was different,
E.g the hover over said https://website.com but the actual link was something like https://linkedin.com/linkout/wbdjdhgaj?user=xhedb
Just double checked and this also happens in Firefox. I think the other user in this thread has explained it well, looks like a JavaScript intercept onClick to prevent the link action and instead call a JavaScript function to open a different link.
In this case it is built into the site so I guess it is OK on the basis that I am trusting LinkedIn to not do anything malicious but it was more the principle as I had previously looked at the status bar to confirm the link was what I was expecting but in the future I will be more wary. Interestingly, right clicking and selecting “copy link” does actually copy the page which is loaded as opposed to the one on the status bar.
If you have linkedin it seems to be links in direct messages if you would like to see yourself.
