WEBP is not recognised as a standard type and demands the user to use
strict=Falseas inmimetypes.guess_type("foobar.webp", strict=False)to recognise it. This is because it was previously not recognised by IANA as an official type.Since the introduction of
webpsupport in themimetypesmodule in #89802 it has officially been accepted to IANA and thus is not a "non-standard format" anymore.Refs:
