Hiding links for users without access
Hi, The feature you are looking for is called security trimming, and you are correct in that if you want to make use of this then you will need to enable the publishing feature. So it's a bit of a trade off i'm afraid. You can read more about the options here - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/office365/enterprise/navigation-options-for-sharepoint-online

PeterRising it's a real shame that Office 365 groups don't take part in security trimming 😞 My client has a blend of classic sites and modern Office 365 groups. They are moving towards the later exclusively but the fact that the link now always appears in quick links is a step backwards.
- The other way is a custom navigation implemented through a SPFx extension...by the way not a fan here of enabling publishing on modern sites

Any reference material on these? Never used them. jcgonzalezmartinWould you mind saying a bit more about why you don't care for publishing on Modern sites? Thanks!
- Mainly because Publishing feature is a "legacy" feature pre-modern. Enabling the feature you introduce a lot of stuff you need:
- A new document library that can be confusing for your users
- The pages document library that does not support (to my knowledge) modern pages
- A bunch of lists
- New SharePoint Groups
So yes, you can better manage the navigation but also at the cost of adding many staff that does not make sense on modern
