Isn't this old news? This happened several days ago and Suyu is already back up on their own repository.

This is the best summary I could come up with:
Update 22/03/24, 10:56 UTC - While GitLab have not responded to my email, the team behind suyu are continuing on.
After a first release, GitLab have already pulled down the Nintendo Switch emulator suyu, due to a DMCA hit as a result of it being forked from yuzu which Nintendo shut down.
Even though the suyu team were doing it as a non-profit, with no way to donate, it seems this didn't matter because it's based on a project that was already taken down.
The suyu Discord is also no longer accepting invites, probably due to an influx of people wondering what's going on.
A few people managed to grab the notice that was sent to the suyu team like Mr. Sujano on X:
Since yuzu was open source though, Nintendo will have plenty of trouble fully erasing it, since even a very quick Google search showed up plenty of it still existing on the web across various places.
The original article contains 245 words, the summary contains 158 words. Saved 36%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
That was unsurprising fast
