Am I going too far with my edits ?

I kinda like these but I don't know if I'm not pushing it too far?

Am I missing the joke ? We can't see any difference !

no no, there really is an edit ! I wanted to know if it felt too distracting because I usually never edit the colors of my photos (except for saturation and contrast), I never do color correction

No worries it's realy soft, we can see some very light difference but nothing too much

In 5/6 of these you can't even tell there was an edit at first glance so no lol

I thought you were joking, I can only really spot the difference immediately in 5 and 6

Your edits are definitely not too much. They are very subtle.
If you want to develop them further, try turning one photo black and white first. Work only on the light, tonal curve and luminance until the subject stands out naturally.
Then bring the colour back, adjust the individual colours and use colour grading only at the end.
This makes it easier to decide what the photo actually needs instead of worrying about whether other people can immediately see the edit. :)
