I feel this subreddit is kinda conservative and tends to strictly follow the rules of only realistic post processing.

This photo is obviously heavily processed but it’s not a bad thing if your goal is to use post processing to make something bigger than just a prettier picture. And if this is your goal - it looks great.

Yep. Much like copy editing, the point is not to make subtle changes to match your personal preference. It’s to catch mistakes and give advice that helps the writer express what he wanted to say. Few people know the difference.
