Dcard

Taiwan’s largest anonymous community platform — forums, posts, and personas.

Forums: Browse by alias (e.g. trending, talk, relationship)
Search: Full-text search across all forums
Personas: User profiles by username

Slow response expected: Dcard endpoints may take 10–90 seconds to respond, especially on first request. Please set your HTTP client timeout to at least 120 seconds. Subsequent requests are typically much faster (1–2s).
