Reddit's main color motif is red in their emblem, it would make sense the opposite would be negative on this site for downvotes.

Upvotes are orange, not red. Orange is Reddit’s main branding color.

It’s orange. It’s quite clearly orange same as the Reddit logo. Also it’s purple, not blue. Again, clearly.

I associate red with anger, disapproval. Blue is always positive to me.

Downvotes are purple and upvotes are orange. I assume the orange is to match the general theming of Reddit (like the orange app icon) and the purple just contrasts with it.
