How to compress all responses with Microsoft.AspNetCore.ResponseCompression

Question

1. Why Microsoft.AspNetCore.ResponseCompression don't compress all responses?
2. Will be any problems if add lot of mime-types?
3. Is there any libs with mime-types constant lists?

Answer 1

Look like there is no option to compress all responses, so I create collection with common mime types

services.AddResponseCompression(options => { options.MimeTypes = MimeTypes.CommonMimeTypes; });

internal static class MimeTypes
{
    public static readonly IEnumerable<string> CommonMimeTypes = new[]
    {
        "application/javascript",
        "application/json",
        "application/ld+json",
