I don’t think it’s a joke, though it’s not universal, but many services probably either don’t process the image, or use libraries that support webp, and naively limit formats before feeding them in - in those cases, renaming the file can bypass those crappy filters, and other software will probably figure out the filetype based on the actual data.
