Well, that didn't last long did it. 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.

    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.
