I literally just learned that these existed when Amazon recommended them to me randomly, they use set screws so they're much more secure than any other type I've tried. You can probably find them at other retailers with some searching!

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.

Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.

Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

I have several pens on my purse with these set screw style pinbaclers, and the pins have broken before the pin backer gives out.
You havent tried these personally yet?
I haven’t used this exact version but my wife and I have rotate pins on our backpack when we go to Disneyland. After having a couple fall off or get removed, we got a pack of this style in the park and I’d highly recommend them. Super easy to pop on and we haven’t lost a single pin since then, like three years ago.
Not yet (I want to find a pack with a more sane quantity before ordering) but I've used plenty of things that are held in place with set screws over the years as an avid tinkerer and I can almost guarantee this will be much more secure than a butterfly clip
I've used a ton of these, they work great
I like the rubber pin backs. Simple and more secure.

These style of pin backs need to be pulled in order to release the pin. I've used them on my daily bag and work coat for years without issue.
