Removing downvoting feels intuitively wrong to me (eg, I believe that dissent is a really important part of a healthy democracy). If all those mega-corp platforms are removing downvoting, then I'm pretty confident my intuition on this matter is correct

Is Reddit getting rid of down votes?!

No, reddit is not removing downvotes. The post was alluding to when they removed displaying downvotes scores.
