`FileNotFoundError` when developing locally after upgrading to `12.8.0` and django 3.

Hi,

When developing locally without the media files available, I keep getting FileNotFoundError printed to the console. I'm calling sorl.thumbnail.get_thumbnail directly (i.e, without using the templatetags.

backend_1   |   File "/opt/venv/lib/python3.9/site-packages/sorl/thumbnail/base.py", line 104, in get_thumbnail
backend_1   |     source_image = default.engine.get_image(source)
backend_1   |   File "/opt/venv/lib/python3.9/site-packages/sorl/thumbnail/engines/pil_engine.py", line 72, in get_image
backend_1   |     buffer = BytesIO(source.read())
backend_1   |   File "/opt/venv/lib/python3.9/site-packages/sorl/thumbnail/images.py", line 162, in read
backend_1   |     f = self.storage.open(self.name)
backend_1   |   File "/opt/venv/lib/python3.9/site-packages/django/core/files/storage.py", line 38, in open
backend_1   |     return self._open(name, mode)
backend_1   |   File "/opt/venv/lib/python3.9/site-packages/django/core/files/storage.py", line 243, in _open
backend_1   |     return File(open(self.path(name), mode))
backend_1   | FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/workspace/media/posts/image-72.png'

I tried to use the DUMMY config, but the error continue.

I believe that before when I was on django==2.2.2 and sorl-thumbnail==12.5.0 this error was getting suppressed somehow.

Using:

         'sorl.thumbnail': {
             'handlers': ['null'],
         },

Works, but I don't want to suppress every sorl-thumbnail error.

Looking at https://github.com/jazzband/sorl-thumbnail/blob/master/sorl/thumbnail/base.py#L106, and comparing with the 12.5.0 version, I couldn't find any difference, so it must be a new Django default that I'm missing.

Does anyone have any ideas here? Thanks!

Hello. Is there anything on this issue?

The migration never went through and I'm still on Django 2, so I wasn't affect by this yet. Hopefully someone knows a workaround for this by now.
