New here…does the Logitec Harmony Hub still work with Home Assistant out of the box? Or is a downgrade still required as per below?

It’s fixed with a new firmware where you can enable XMPP support (developer mode):

[Resolved] Harmony Hub issues after February 2019 update v.4.15.250

Even without that the integration works, it just uses the code that was created when xmpp was no longer available.
