Axis skew or bed warped or something else? two parellel edges have different length

I've had my Mini for a year and there's an issue I've noticed on large prints: it's not square.

But the odd part is that it's not a parallelogram (which seems to be the symptom of XY skew). The front and back edges are the same size (within tolerance) but the right and left are not..

Measuring on 100mm square I have this:

On a 150mm square, I've had up to 0.75mm different between left and right.

My first layers are good otherwise and I don't have adhesion problem. I've tried to adjust skew and bed flatness, but it doesn't seem to help.
The bottom left corner was drooping a bit but I've added a thin washer under the headbed but it doesn't change anything.

I contacted support a while ago, but they didn't have any answers beyond checking squareness.
